Yes. AsciiDoc is both the name of the format and also the name of the original reference implementation in Python, but development on that ceased a few years ago. AsciiDoctor is an alternative implementation in Ruby and actively being developed. We are already using the AsciiDoc format for our man pages, and that has proved to be a good choice, because the format is quite extensible (custom macros, includes, etc.). Rainer
