+1 for the use of .adoc.
I use the .adoc extension as it is a reminder to me what language I am writing in. As a Windows Notepad++ user this also allows the syntax to show, which is very valuable when writing.

(.asciidoc or .adoc) Hi DIG, At a DIG meeting on March 5th in IRC, we discussed changing all of our doc files from "NAME.txt" to "NAME.asciidoc" (or "NAME.adoc"). The main benefit of this would be that GitHub would recognize these as AsciiDoc files and would auto-render them as HTML in the browser. Hopefully this would make it easier for editors to check their work before submitting it. Here is a summary of our discussion from that meeting: . Pro: Would make editing/writing docs on GitHub more friendly . Con: Would make editing files on local computer less friendly (if text editor doesn't know .adoc extension, but most editors can be easily configured for this) . Shouldn't cause any problems with the automatic HTML conversion Do you support this change? Which extension: .asciidoc or .adoc? Do you have any questions or concerns? If we decide to move forward, the change could be made easily, any time, and as a single Git commit. And we could test the nightly conversion process using the master (i.e. dev) branch before applying the change to the 2.8 and 2.7 docs. Please voice your opinions!
