I'm not impressed by markdown, but by all accounts pandoc (and thus gitit) has an extended markdown implementation and a crippled reST implementation, so within the scope of gitit, I guess the difference is not so staggering. > However, what stymies me currently is figuring out how to actually > convert the pages in the wiki!

I believe I have adequate sed-fu to handle the majority of differences. There *will* be edge cases, and we can resolve these by hand. > 2) Hack up some regexp script of our own.

The benefit of doing it ad-hoc is that I can "darcs get", try things, and only send in what works. Meantime, other people can proof read and manually fix other parts. Yay for distributed version control. _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
