IIRC, adding Markdown to Hadock was suggested on this list before, and the major argument against it was that Markdown didn't have a standard.
The biggest argument against it is that several Markdown conventions conflict with existing Haddock conventions, so you don't get to mix and match and you may have to specify which convention you're using. Note that a flag day to deprecate the old Haddock is not an option, unless you are offering to rewrite the haddocks of every existing package. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
