Re: [xwiki-devs] [xwiki-users] [Idea] Make Markdown syntax available as an optional subset of the XWiki 2.1 syntax - xwiki-devs@xwiki.org

27 Nov 2015

The point is not to use someone else's code or even to duplicate
the logic to a perfect binary-compatible tee, the point is to be
"standard enough" that it's familiar to people who come in from
Github, StackOverflow, Slack, Reddit etc.

The php-inspired macro idea is another attempt at making it more
familiar to people and thus more intuitive.

Thanks,
Caleb

 I like it but I am sure it can clash heavily somewhere.

 Another proposal is here:
 https://github.com/codingcoop/markdown-macros
 More compact... thus less portable… 
 Can you explain why you’re trying to do something that’s already implemented? You don’t
like our current implementation?

 Thanks
