Hi,

I agree we should produce a Texinfo doc.  We have a bug to track this
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219334> and people have suggested
some tools that may be able to do it.  If somebody who loves Texinfo
will tell me "run tool X with command line Y and it produces good
output" I'll put it in to the Makefile.
