No, org-export needs testing, and I'm ready to debug it.

I'd rather pull you into writing a Texinfo back-end for the export

I do not ask you to debug anything, but, if you can provide them, ECM
help a lot.  In any case, please report the problems you get with it.

I don't mind either way.  I think reporting to this list is fine as it
may prevent users from encountering the same problems over and over.
