Hoi, What the f* is an EBNF .. It does not help that you URL is wrong. Being clever (ahum) I found Extended Backus–Naur form.. A question, do you really think that an average Wiki editor will NOT get hopelessly confused and get it hopelessly wrong as well?
Personally I find it horribly ugly as well
Virgil did not even hint at the fact that this is to be used by editors. You assumed that and it's most probably a wrong assumption.
Maybe it's for developers? Maybe it's for research and comparison with other similar markups? Maybe it's just for the fun of it?
Personally, I'm intrigued. Virgil, could you elaborate on the purpose of this project? In what ways can it help us (and who exactly is the 'us' in this case :))?
