I became interested in defining Markdown and made an earnest attempt at a
Markdown standard, or at least a less ambiguous syntax specification than
the original.
The document is found at: <http://peteroupc.github.io/markdownsyntax/>.
Note that it's currently incomplete, but it should be enough for you to
comment on it. It defines a parsing algorithm that follows the behavior of
the majority of Markdown implementations.
The Markdown comparer at <http://johnmacfarlane.net/babelmark2/> helped me
determine common behavior.
The project page is <https://github.com/peteroupc/markdownsyntax>.
