Is it already usable right now? I could be some kind of a beta tester user.

By the way, in the PDF file, could you have a look at the word
"Sumar=C3=ADssimo" on the file? It is my translation of Short Table of Cont=
ents.
It did cause me some bad the 'i' character on that word. I would like to
solve that issue for the next release.

Thank you in advance.

I did a parser for Texinfo for po4a that should be more robust than the<br>
existing one, that is based on the SWIG GNU Texinfo interface:<br>
