In general I agree with you, but the _original_ markdown language is pretty much defined by the markdown.pl program itself. In a way, there are no real "alternatives" if you look it that way. Yeah, there's CommonMark, but that's a different thing (and for that you've got cmark, md4c, markdown-it, etc.).

For my own files I just use CommonMark, but when I have to write something that has to pass through different markdown interpreters which might use their own different markdown dialects, I just restrict myself to the highest common denominator - and that is the markdown package.

Hope it makes more sense now :)

Just cancel the RM bug when you're done.

Got it. Would you want to sponsor my upload, or should I look for a sponsor elsewhere?

Thanks!
