Hello orgers,

Last year, Thomas started a project to translate the org manual to org
format, and use the ox-texinfo exporter to generate the .info and .pdf
manuals.  (email thread: http://mid.gmane.org/m1bob8cffh.fsf@tsdye.com)
It seems like that project showed promise but never was completed.  Is
there any interest in seeing it through?  As an occasional contributor,
I would certainly find it pleasanter and less time-consuming to write
docs in org rather than texinfo.

Thanks,

I'm still in favor of doing this, but it will be an uphill battle.  I'll
have to check what the state of my local branch is on this, let me get
back to you when it at least compiles the old version of the manual.


Regards,
Achim.

Trying to get .texi manuals from .org files is a good way to improve
the Texinfo exporter, and the day we can export org.org to org.texi
with very little headache and ad hoc configuration, yes, we will make
the move.

But that's a project per se and I won't be able to dedicate time to
it: if you, Achim and Thomas manage to get something, I'll be more
than happy!

If you check out the orgmanual branch in Thomas' repository (and follow
the instructions on this list to integrate it into the Org build
system), then only these two patches are missing from my local version:
