Yes, that's right. I'm bringing orgmanual.git up-to-date using the git
diff magic formula you sent me a week and a half ago and making some
edits as I go along. Changes to the installation section began as minor
edits, but grew as this thread went on.

You have the persistence of a good maintainer. I haven't finished
editing the other installation sections, so I'm not in a position to
repeat my earlier reply to a similar query, which was to export
orgmanual! :)

I do hope it will be possible in the near future for me to take a larger
role in maintaining the Org manual. That is my goal. But for me to do
that the manual will need to be in Org, not texi. For purely personal
reasons that don't reflect at all on the Org community or the manual,
org.texi fills me with horror. If the orgmanual experiment fails then I
plan to beat a hasty retreat, lick my wounds, and work happily on other
interesting tasks at hand.

All the best,
Tom
