Please do change them--the Emacs HEAD sources already depend
on @copying for one manual.
Ok, I just checked in changes to almost all the top-level manuals in
emacs, to use @copying instead of the variety of methods that were there
before. I also changed the @top nodes to be @ifnottex in the cases where
@ifinfo was used, since otherwise the html output would come out wrong.
I didn't change the gnus manual since it is constructed in a way I don't
understand, to allow for processing by LaTeX, apparently. And I didn't
change the tramp manual, since it already uses @copying in an unusual
way, and fixing that would have required more changes than I felt
comfortable making.
makeinfo (from 4.2) is happy creating info from all of the files. I did
not exhaustively check the TeX or HTML output. Hopefully it's all ok.
If any of the authors complain, feel free to redirect them to me.
