1.
What is the official FSF stand on the relative merits of these two? It
seems to me that texinfo is still going strong, and that latexinfo is
in little use?

2.
What is the most sensible organization of `info' directory files? We
patched info.el to use a info-path rather thatn one directory so as to
avoid mixing official Emacs info files with imported stuff (for easy
upgrading to next Emacs version). This seems well enough integrated
for lisp-libraries but hardly for info files ?
