The document discusses GCC documentation and proposes moving from Texinfo to Sphinx format. It notes limitations of the current Texinfo documentation such as poor navigation and lack of search. Sphinx would address these issues and bring features like code highlighting, cross-references between manuals, and automated link checking. The conversion process would involve using makeinfo to convert Texinfo to XML and then a script to transform it to ReStructuredText format used by Sphinx. Some manual changes would still be needed and Python would be required for Sphinx. Key candidates for initial migration include the Changes and Porting to manuals.
