Unfortunately, the org documentation is not an org file: org.texi is the
primary file and it has always been a texinfo file. makeinfo is used to
turn it into an info file, and texi2pdf is used to turn it into a PDF
file (and thence to paper): see the org Makefile.

The reason is that org is part of emacs. The project *requires*
that documentation be provided in texinfo format.
