Yes. We already have org2pdf, org2ascii, org2html, but not org2info.

I am not sure about catchup game. Unless Texinfo drastically changes the
output format, we can simply provide default settings to replicate the
Texinfo look of the produced html/pdf/plaintext/info files.
As for being slow, it is already not the case. Last time we discussed
Org export being slow, I have managed to speed things up on par with
Texinfo timings on Org manual.
In any case, the first step is extending Org markup to be more suitable
for software manuals. Whether we use texinfo under the hood or not might
be discussed afterwards.
