Just a note about W3C community groups.

It is not.
 
Community Groups are groups that *anyone* can start about a topic related to 
the Web :) You do not need to be a W3C Member, to pay anything, etc. You just 
need to open a public W3C [account][], and be a bunch of motivated and open ;) 
people to discuss about a topic of interests. 

W3C gives the platform for free. In the case of Markdown, it means:

* Home page
  http://www.w3.org/community/markdown/
  http://www.w3.org/community/markdown/feed/
* Archived mailing-lists
  http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-markdown/
* A wiki
  http://www.w3.org/community/markdown/wiki/Main_Page
* An irc channel
  irc://irc.w3.org:6665/#markdown


[account]: http://www.w3.org/community/account/request


That said if the community group has been successful, published a document, 
etc. There might be interests from the W3C Members to make it on W3C Rec track 
and then go into the patent policy dance, etc.
