[ANN] Babelmark

[Fletcher T. Penney]

Any reason for including Text::MultiMarkdown and not the official  
MultiMarkdown itself?  It would be useful for finding any areas where  
the two versions differ from each other, in addition to where MMD  
differs from other implementations.


This looks like a fantastic tool, in either case - thanks for sharing  
it.
