Vratko Polak created DOXIA-535:
----------------------------------
Summary: Support .markdown extension
Key: DOXIA-535
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DOXIA-535
Project: Maven Doxia
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Module - Markdown
Reporter: Vratko Polak
Currently, "md" is the only extension identifying markdown files for Doxia.
There are many [0] extensions identifying markdown. GitHub uses "md", but it is
also interpreting markdown somewhat differently [1]. Wikipedia article [2]
offers "markdown" as an alternative extension, citing [3] the author of
markdown, who agrees [4] with proponents of this extension.
Please, add a support for "markdown" extension;
possibly keeping it for standard markdown and leaving "md" for the GitHub style.
