Hi, Dave,

John Gruber provides a definition that might be used as a starting point:

"Markdown is a text-to-HTML conversion tool for web writers. Markdown
allows you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text
format, then convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML)."

<http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/>

Modify the "convert it to stucturally valid XHTML (or HTML)" phrase as desired.

Glossaries can perform wonders in keeping everyone on the same page.
