I agree with Pete. I think the Wiki is a temporary container for the
documentation. As Pete said, we may embed the docs into the web site
or it may be published to the Customer Portal. Similar to the other
documentation, we may also eventually need more complex structures
like tables and graphs and I'm pretty sure we will want to publish
PDFs. I hate to tie ourselves to something that can't grow with us.
The syntax for AsciiDoc is very similar and I don't find it any more
difficult to work with than Markdown.<br>
<br>
I do think we need to be consistent with the documentation and use
the same tooling for all the pages. However, Ondra, if you feel more
comfortable and productive working with Markdown, please continue to
use it as you are doing an amazing job creating documentation! When
you think a page is ready, I am happy to convert it to AsciiDoc for
you. :-)<br>

I doubt that the github wiki will be our target output platform.
We’ll likely want to embed them in to the website.

One of Ondra's complaints is the way lists seem to
display an extra paragraph between the items. Take a
look at the home page here: <a moz-do-not-send="true"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://github.com/windup/windup/wiki">https://github.com/windup/windup/wiki</a><br>
<br>
Note that the list items are spaced far apart. I search
for a solution, and the only thing I could find was
mention of using <code>[options="compact"], </code>but
it didn't seem to work.<br>
<br>
Ondra, what other issues did you have. <br>

<pre wrap="">The big advantages of asciidoc are:
* more comprehensive markup (e.g. tables, definition lists are supported as standard)
* generation of pdf and epub is part of the standard toolchain
Markdown is great for short docs, but I quickly ran in to the limitations when building more complex documents.
GitHub’s support for asciidoc wasn’t great to start with, but I think the fixed it more recently. Before you abandon it, point me at the problems, I can take a quick look.
I prefer asciidoc links as you just do link:<a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://redhat.com/">http://redhat.com</a>[Red Hat’s website]. I find this much easier to remember than the weird []() syntax in markdown.

Subject: Re: [windup-dev] Asciidoc - lists
For the record: I don't strongly prefer either, only that I only touched
few things in AsciiDoc, and:
1) certain constructs are quite less readable -> editable in the
source text (e.g. links)
2) the render results are not satisfactory - things like a bold text
in a lists are not properly implemented on whatever GitHub uses.

<pre wrap="">Hi all,
Ondra asked me about the advantages of AsciiDoc over Markdown. I
really don't know, but I do remember Pete saying AsciiDoc would be
better for the quickstart README files long ago. And I believe Drupal,
the new host for documentation, supports AsciiDoc.
TBH, I don't feel strongly about sticking with AsciiDoc. If no one can
come up with a good reason for sticking with it, I'm fine with going
back to Markdown if it's easier for everyone.
So, AsciiDoc advocates, please speak up now.
Thanks,
Sande

You're asking me? ;-)
I'm totally new to asciidoc. I'll research it and see what I can find
out.
Thanks,
