Yes, we build the HTML manual in all languages and the Info manual in
English.

As I now manage to run autogen.sh successfully, I've tested today's CVS
Texinfo.  The new behaviour of makeinfo regarding UTF-8 encoding is no
longer what we expect when building lilypond HTML manual: we expect
makeinfo to translate

@documentencoding UTF-8

as

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

regardless of makeinfo UTF-8 knoweledge.


I agree it is safer not to allow unknown encodings in makeinfo, so if it
is a deliberate design decision, we will stick with makeinfo 4.8 to
build LilyPond manual.  I hope I could help adding real UTF-8 support in
makeinfo, but I will have time for this only in Summer 2008.
