I appreciate your willingness to do this work, but this situation is a problem, because there is no such thing as the source file for that manual. The Texinfo file is not the real source file, since you don't really do editing in it. The Org file is not the real source file since you can't compile it automatically. We need to have a real source file! Can you treat the Texinfo file as the source, and do your editing in that. Alternatively, could you enhance Org format so you can generate the Texinfo file automatically from it, with all the proper Texinfo markup? -- Dr Richard Stallman Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
