   aren't that many manuals even in English, let alone other languages,
   and there are almost no manuals in multiple languages.
 
-- Process Texinfo files directly instead of converting to Info:
-  ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/ucb/people/phelps/tcltk/tkman.tar.Z, which
-  uses Tcl/Tk 8.0 from ftp.smli.com in the /pub/tcl directory.
-  From: Tom Phelps @ berkeley
-  [This has the disadvantage of needing to be updated when the
-  Texinfo language changes, so don't.]
+- Process Texinfo files directly instead of converting to other formats.
+  [It will always be easier to convert Texinfo to a format with the
+   same information and easier to process such as TexinfoXML, or to a
+   format corresponding to the tree structure of Texinfo documents as
+   parsed by the Parser]
 
 - Call Ghostscript to get ASCII/jpg output for the @image command.
   [makeinfo should not try to be make, or assume it knows how the user
    wants to generate images.  Too many different methods are possible.]
 
-- Get Info declared as a MIME Content-Type, and
-  an `info:' URI scheme; a library consortium has proposed a
-  completely different purpose for the URI scheme, but I don't know
-  how to send comments, despite it being a "request for comments".  Sigh.
+- Get Info declared as a MIME Content-Type, and an `info:' URI scheme;
+  A library consortium had an URI scheme for a completely different
+  purpose than info documentation accepted:
+    https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4452
   There is mail about this in the bug-texinfo archives:
     http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2003-09/msg00086.html
-  [I suppose it is too late, and it doesn't seem to matter in practice.]
+  However, the registration of those URI and the use of those URI is
+  discontinued since 2010:
+    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Info_URI_scheme
+  Meanwhile the use of info: in free softwares is still documented in
+  man uri.
 
 - Change bars.  This is difficult or impossible in TeX,
   unfortunately.  To do it right requires device driver support.
