These days, as I keep repeating to no apparent effect another viable
-- as far as I can see, the best -- approach is use the Texinfo XML
output as your input.
Perhaps people resist XML, no matter its viability, because it is ugly.
Karl's talking about using it as an output format, not to write by hand.
It would be cool if Texinfo were able to produce SXML, a format directly
translatable to/from XML, directly.
Since we like Lisp, SXML might be better than XML. Is there a free
converter between XML and SXML? I would guess there is.
The question is, can Emacs render the XML or SXML output
that we would get from our manuals? Is that feasible?
