Let's see if I got this right:
GML -> SGML -> HTML -> XML
Gruber takes the word markup, takes a (slight) new spin on the name markup and and calls it the opposite of markup (markdown). He now owns. Gruber gets mad when someone wants to extend markdown to be a generalized/common/standard version of itself, as has happened many times in history, because the name isn't differentiated itself enough.
How about just changing it to:
pukram
markram
unmarkup
markforward
markback
markright
rightmark
markit
nwodkram
grandmarky
markymark
(Note: I think Common/Standard Markdown is just fine)
