Misty Stanley-Jones commented on HBASE-11533:
---------------------------------------------

It's a superset of Markdown. Markdown doesn't quite have enough variation to be 
used for general documentation. Asciidoctor is a good project and was started 
with Docbook in mind. I was involved early on in making sure it had enough 
semantic differentiation but was still lightweight.

> Get some folks to play around with it afterward.
