Yes, adding links to "further reading" is a good idea, because it helps
people who didn't find the answer to their question in your topic, and
people who want background information. You need to make sure that the
"further reading" links don't get in the way of the main content,
though.

I can't wait until we start moving to Mallard, since it makes this sort
of thing really easy.

Thanks,

Phil
