ReST was another solution in search of a problem.
I think the basic idea behind ReST is quite good, i.e. understanding as markup various typographical conventions that make sense in plain text, such as underlined headings, bullets, numbered paragraphs. Unfortunately it went overboard with a slew of cryptic codes for footnotes, hyperlinks, etc. that nobody would naturally think to use in a plain text document. -- Greg -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
