Here is avid darcs user familiar enough with several DVCS (bzr, hg, git), but except fossil there is none appealing enough to replace darcs. Having some 'standard' wiki markup is one of the things I researched as soon as I visited fossil site today (after having short enocunter in Sept '09). For a long time I was thinking to use reST/Sphinx for my projects' docs, but gaving up on some Python technology (Django) and decided to use Haskell, I've returned back to Markdown considering there is excellent implementation in Pandoc (http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/) which supports some nice extensions as well. The usage of Markdown/Pandoc for end-user docs is quite appropriate considering that one can convert Markdown markup into HTML/LaTeX/ConTeXt etc. which would make Markdown excellent choice for wiki format in Fossil. I saw (at the end of the thread), there fossil-creole markup, but just wonder if there is still some live in the dead-horse of Markdown-as-fossil-wiki-format?
