What is the status on doxia 1.3 (a.k.a. when will we have markdown support released)

[stephenconnolly]

Just a query as I suspect markdown would help with the new fluido skin
for doing a fancier front page...

AFAIK we can do less things in Markdown than existing APT and others
For example Markdown doesn't allow to create tables. You have to include
pure HTML to do them.

Yes but you _can_ include pure HTML... and to make a home page that is
like openejb's being able to put in html where you need it can help,
while the rest of the content can be kept in a nice plain text
format... whereas going the xdoc route means that the whole page is
xml-ized rather than just the one section that we'd want 3-column

I wouldn't suggest reworking all our site in markdown, only the main
http://maven.apache.org/index.html and maybe the downloads and one or
two others... and only if it helps.... but in any case I like markdown
and I'd like to know when doxia 1.3 will be released as it has
markdown support in the 1.3-SNAPSHOT tree

Hi Stephen!
we can have fun with xdoc as well - I know, it's a little outdated,
but it works :P
I'll upload a modified Maven site on my personal space using fluido
just to show an enhanced index page, hop you'll like it :)
Have a nice day, all the best!
Simo

Have you actually tested the doxia markdown module? It's new and not yet
complete IMO (see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-436). OTOH, xdoc
is well supported and tested, especially with the new doxia 1.1 API. If
it's just for one page, I would go for xdoc.

I have not tested it at all.... I was under the impression that if it
had been moved from sandbox to trunk it might have had some testing!
;-)

Of course assume makes an ass of u and me

I moved it out of the sandbox after a standard set of test cases was
supplied, as documented at http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-426. So
the module should be functional for basic purposes, but it hasn't been
hard-core tested (or tested at all AFAIK) for anything else. Also,
fixing DOXIA-436 is likely to bring some change in behaviour, so it's
not yet stable is all I'm saying. OTOH, the maven home page would be a
good test bed I suppose... ;)
