Re: What is out there?

I agree that we need an idea of popularity, maintenance, etc.

Some of this information can be found in place like the Ruby Toolbox:

I like how the StackOverflow link takes a survey of how a particular
feature (code fencing) is implemented. From that, we could make
recommendations based on user expectation (familiarity with popular
implementations and consistency with the rest of the spec).

I don't think we can possibly evaluate every implementation there is, but
we could choose a dozen or so of the "top" ones.

For the sake of having somewhere to look,
would users please list all the markdown implementations / syntax that
they know of?

I'll put them on a wiki page as reference.

If you know or think an implementation is popular/ very popular / unused
please add that.

TIA
