Subject: No Markdown support
HTML::WikiConverter doesn't seem to support Markdown, an increasingly popular format for blogs with some inroads into wikis. The standard Perl implementation of Markdown is at http:// daringfireball.net/markdown/ and I've written an HTML to Markdown converter at http:// www.aaronsw.com/2002/html2text/ Let me know if I can do anything to help.

I've got a preliminary Markdown dialect running on the test server at http://diberri.dyndns.org/wikipedia/html2wiki/. Implemented features include: * b, i, em, and strong tags * headers (atx style) * code (partially) * blockquotes * links (reference and inline styles) * images (reference, inline, and tag styles) * lists (ordered and unordered, with multiple styles for each) * tables * backslash escapes My todo list includes (but is not limited to): * use HTML instead of Markdown markup inside block-level HTML elements * upload to CPAN! Give it a whirl and let me know what you think. -- David Iberri

Using HTML inside block-level HTML elements is non-trivial, so it'll have to wait. In the meantime, I've uploaded H::WC::Markdown 0.01 to CPAN. Enjoy! -- David Iberri
