Seeking 'info' extension for info file directory *path* capability

I'd like to be enable fairly free-running development of info files as
the basis for site documention at my site, and to facilitate that it
would be very handy to have info mode respect a path for resolving
info file references, rather than being restricted to single default
directory.  I saw such a hack go by on the gnu.emacs.sources newsgroup
a few months ago but didn't clip it then, figuring i could get it from
wherever the newsgroup is being archived when it came time to use it.
However, i don't seem to be able to find anywhere that the
.emacs.sources newsgroup is being archived - is there somewhere i can
look for such an archive, or is there somewhere else i can get the/a
info file directory-path hack?

Thanks!
