Re: use of sphinx/rest as source for GNAT doc

What about the preprocessor for the VMS specifics?  Will it go away?

- we would still provide .texi files, generated automatically by the
   sphinx toolset (via 'make texinfo') and committed in the repository
   (similarly to configure vs configure.in/aclocal.m4), so end users
   would not have any extra dependency, and generation of documentation
   would still be possible from the .texi files directly

How stable is the output from Sphinx across versions? Will this potentially cause a lot of update churn?
