Hi, I was just browsing the main DDP page (http://www.us.debian.org/doc/ddp) and followed the link to the "current" (dated 2002?) Doc Policy: http://www.us.debian.org/doc/manuals/ddp-policy/ddp-policy
Anyhow, for my own docs I recently started using Texinfo, and I've been quite happy with it. It actually surprised me to see that Debian doesn't use Texinfo, and I was curious if anyone could explain to me why the choice was made to not use it. The policy draft mentions Texinfo (among some other formats) : http://www.us.debian.org/doc/manuals/ddp-policy/ch-manuals.en.html#s3.1 and notes DebianDoc's shortcomings which include not being able to include images or tables. Since Texinfo can do these things, and since it's been the GNU standard doc format for some time now, I'm just curious to hear what the rationale was for going with DebianDoc.
