Okay, I feel dense, but I'm going to have to ask you to clarify this. Does this 
mean that you think we should:

a). Take a snapshot of DCL, use it as a seed for WHUPS, and go our seperate 
ways?

b). Migrate DCL to use the Horde framework, and have it as the bug-
tracking/ticket/etc. app for Horde (thus deprecating WHUPS)?

c). Something else I'm not catching?

So, it sounds like one of the first things to do either way we go is to split 
the FAQ stuff out and make it into a standalone, integrateable module.
