Changes proposed for Creole 0.5#
There is a lot of changes proposed for Creole 0.5, and some of them are interdependent. I will try and list them here, so that we can have a better picture. If I skip something, feel free to add it.
- treat "\n" in paragraphs as space, not as forced line breaks;
- have a "forced line break" markup (which one?);
- start headings with single "=", not double;
- allow "}" at the end of nowiki and preformatted blocks;
- define three kinds of emphasis, but don't define their presentation;
- allow forced line break in table cells;
Changes still discussed that seem too immature for 0.5, probably to be proposed for 0.6:
- quoting markup;
- table headings;
- multiline list items;
That's just my "impression" of where we stand, but I think it's important to know it. Now, do we just put it into a draft and discuss it as a whole? This version seems to bring a lot of pretty important changes.
Why 0.5? What happened to 0.4? Also, I'm not sure we need to take such small, incremental steps. Courage!
.
To your list, I would add:
- requiring whitespace after bullet (disambiguate from bold)
- indented block markup
I'll put my preferences in Raph's 0.4 recommendations.
