Install texinfo files (GNU info) into ${PREFIX}/share/info

After a discussion on the mailing list on moving manpages to
${PREFIX}/share/man for consistency with base where it is
installed in usr/share/man, it appeared the same should happen
to GNU info files which were installed under share in base and
not in ports.

I checked 2018's archive of this ML but couldn't find such thread.
Would someone please tell me where this discussion took place?

Best Regards.
