This could take months though, so probably won't be done before the next release.

- Convert the documentation to texinfo - partially complete. 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 texinfo manual 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.
-
- - Texinfo is the official documentation format, for all GNU software.
- - GNU Emacs has decent integration for editing Texinfo documents. See Texinfo mode.
- However, any text editor should be fine (the lead developer of libreboot uses Vim).
- -
- 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.

+ - ./build docs html-onepage
+ - ./build docs pdf

Modify the build system, to make use of standard GNU utilities: make, autoconf and so on. The current build system is
non-standard (but well documented), written mostly in BASH.Read these documents:
