I suppose I could try to get a DVC package into Ubuntu.  Better still
would be to get it into Debian, so that I can then just request a sync

Daniel, do you want to be in charge of this, or should I?  I can
probably find you a sponsor if you're not a Debian developer.

Currently there's no way of importing Texinfo.  The problem is that
Texinfo is more expressive in terms of stuff like @file{}, which Muse
does not have.

Whatever works.  I just want something reasonably solid to show RMS and
the other Emacs devels.
