Hi all
I noticed that the link format with only single colons for the Info
node like info:org:Feedback stopped to work. Now I am confused about
the difference of info:org#Feedback that is documented as a link to an
info _node_ in [[info:org#External Links]] but never used in
org-manual.org versus info:org::Feedback that is not documented in
org-manual.org but used for all Info links there, like for example in
the section info:org::Activation for the link to Key Binding
Conventions.
Currently both link formats can also be used for links to Info
_index_, for example info:org::table.el and info:org#table.el
Should there be a different link format for Info node versus Info index or not?
Who would prefer (my favorite)
| =info:org::External links= | Info node, preferred format |
| =info:org#External links= | (alternative format) |
| =info:org#table.el= | Info index, preferred format |
| =info:org::table.el= | (alternative format) |
or who would prefer
| =info:org::External links= | Info node link |
| =info:org#table.el= | Info index link |
or who would prefer something else?

Short version: I would just like to know how to fix my Org files. Is
the rule to use info:org::Feedback or info:org#Feedback ?

I suggest :: since this is the markup Org uses to separate uri from
parameters.
