Problem

On visiting the WG, I was (am) deeply interested in ultimately ensuring the formatToParts like implementation became part of the spec. I did not understand...

  • the prior context for which all discussions on the matter had occurred in
  • what different team members meant when using the term "markup" in context of this repo
  • the state of markup support in MFv2 (i'd argue, few actually have a great grip on this, outside of a select few, having read all of the issues 😄 )

Solution

Read through the rich history of markup in the codebase. Capture,

  • each key discussion
  • interesting takeaways from the discussion
  • a "Status", representing the sentiment that I perceive that the WG wants from "markup" support

This looks pretty accurate. One small nit: In general we tend to abbreviate as "MF2" rather than "MFv2".

"MF2" rather than "MFv2".

- Revisiting "can our syntax just be XML"-ish? Counter-assertion that XML-compat may be contributor bias.
- Revisiting (implicitly) formatToParts

project lifetime, not to represent the perfect synopsis of an event.

It's usually a good idea to put the most recent date at the top and "push" dates down. This makes it easier to find the current state later!
