I think I have a more interesting project: an all-purposes Texinfo
parser, written in a full-featured and oriented-object language.  I
chose Python as I know this language quite well, but there are certainly
other valid choices; Perl is not a valid choice, because AFAIK there is
no standard implementation of objects.

Then, thanks to this parser plus a simple HTML formatter, Texinfo could
be used as a Wiki language; then, adding an extension like MediaWiki,
every documentation contributor and translator would be able to edit
documentation from a wiki, with quick (partial) rebuild of the doc
output but without the burden of mastering usage of Git.

If you prefer, but please CC to -devel.

Thanks, I applied, tested and pushed.  Note that hu/web.texi was missing
the translator name, so I just added your name.

Francisco had already reported this, I fixed it a few days ago in master
branch.

Yeah, I think setting the number of items of each color and the order of
colors is muchg better, as it avoids hardcoding language-dependent node
names in Texi2HTML init file.  I proposed Graham to prepare the patch,
I'll try to find a moment within one week to implement it.

Best,
John
