> I don't blame Gruber for being upset at that. I do, when he has abandoned his project's raggedy implementation yet defends the trademark viciously.

  He hasn't abandoned it.

    Last release is from 2004 and he is not interested at all to fix the fact that it is severely underspecified..
    • criddell 10y ago
      It's underspecified for what others want. If it didn't do what Gruber needed it to do, surely he would extend it, no?

        You have to go look at the source code of Grubers implementation to figure out what markdown actually is. Or do some empirical studies with different inputs. That is what I mean by underspecified. His specification is not detailed enough to implement a markdown parser. So in reality it is abondonware.
