I'll wait a couple days before committing these patches, in case

Hello.
Appreciate the work you did, but the patchset will cause quite some conflicts
in the prepared Sphinx migration patch I've sent to the mailing list :/
Anyway, I will rebase my patches. For the future, are you planning doing similar
documentation reorganization for a manual? Based on discussion with Gerald, I
hope
we can finish the transition before the end of this year.
My understanding was that, if this conversion is indeed going to happen, it's
going to be automated by scripts?
Exactly, but the conversion needs some manual post-processing that I've already
done.
I hadn't seen any discussion of it on the list for months and thought the
whole idea was on hold or scrapped, since it hasn't happened yet.
There was almost no response, so that's why I contacted Gerald about help.
In any case it does not seem reasonable to freeze the current Texinfo docs for
months while waiting for it to happen, especially as we are heading into the
end of the release cycle and people are finishing up changes and new features
they need to document.
Sure, I can easily rebase normal changes, but you are suggesting a complete
redesign/renaming. It's going to take me some time,
but I'll rebase my patches.
Thanks for understanding,
Martin
