Hi Reinhold,

    http://kainhofer.com/~lilypond/texi2html-out/Documentation/user/lilypond/

Off-topic: you should update the FDL to 1.2 and add 2008 as a copyright
date.

    these are some of the reasons, why makeinfo --html was too limited 

Thanks for the details.  Yeah, texi2html offers many features that
makeinfo --html does not.  That is what is depressing, coupled with the
sad fact that I have not been able to develop comparable features for
makeinfo.  I admire Patrice and crew for their work on texi2html, and
they have contributed a lot to Texinfo, but it's just sad to have this
kind of semi-duplicated effort, especially when GNU packages use the
(non-GNU) texi2html.  Not that I blame you, not at all.

Maybe one day it will get to the top of my list, or maybe another person
will come forward to work on makeinfo instead of switching to texi2html.

Anyway.

Best,
karl
