"The Free Software Foundation has made a policy decision to support DocBook as an interchange format. Texinfo has enough structure to make reasonably good automatic conversion possible, and the 4.x versions of makeinfo feature a --docbook switch that generates DocBook." Note that "reasonably good" doesn't mean perfect, which (once again) implies that presentation-driven markup won't always map one-to-one to logical markup.
