There are already patches converting HOWTO to ReST applied upstream:

commit 1b49ecf2f3be358882bb97652ba50ae808c0ba8f

docs: Clean up bare :: lines

Mauro's patch set introduced some bare :: lines; these can be represented
by a double colon at the end of the preceding text line. The result looks
a little less weird and is less verbose.

Documentation/HOWTO: adjust external link references

- A few link references were missing http://
- Several sites are now redirecting to https protocol. On such
cases, just use the https URL.

NOTE: all URLs were checked and they're pointing to the right places.

Documentation/HOWTO: improve some markups to make it visually better

Do a series of minor improvements at the ReST output format:

- Instead of using the quote blocks (::) for quotes, use
italics. That looks nicer on epub (and html) output, as
no scroll bar will be added. Also, it will adjust line
breaks on the text automatically.

- Add a missing reference to SubmittingPatches.rst and use
**foo** instead of _foo_.

- use bold for "The Perfect Patch" by removing a newline.
