The docs have been converted using pandoc, - but now require a serious cleanup. - We wish to merge these into 1 documentation file (manual) in texinfo file. - The <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/manual/texinfo/">texinfo manual</a> itself - is an example of how we would like to implement the new libreboot documentation. One file, but we - will distribute it separated into separate pages/sections, - and in other formats in addition to HTML. (info, PDF, etc). The current live documentation on the - libreboot website is the old pre-conversion documentation, - written in raw HTML. To encourage the transition, we are now refusing all new documentation submissions - that are not in texinfo format. - <ul> - <li>Texinfo is the official documentation format, for all GNU software.</li> - <li>GNU Emacs has decent integration for editing Texinfo documents. See <em>Texinfo mode</em>. - However, any text editor should be fine (the lead developer of libreboot uses Vim).</li> - <li> - i18n should be implemented from the start, so that we can start maintaining versions of the documentation - in non-English languages. GNU Gettext can be used for this. - </li> - </ul> - </li> - <li> + <li> + The documentation is now fully converted to Texinfo.
