I think it is feasible to get there. But, whether we want a spec for
wikitext and should work towards that is a different question.
In our planning
meeting (E250), we discussed this issue as a
possibility for next week's ArchCom office hour (E259). We don't
(yet) have a specific RFC we can point to, but this seems ripe for a
discussion to answer whether we should work toward a spec. Thoughts?
Works for me.
I can take the email I posted, clean it up a bit, and also pull
additional thoughts from
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:SSastry_(WMF)/Notes/Wikitext and
elsewhere that are relevant. The idea I have is to provide a very high
level view of what one possible spec might look like, and what that
might enable.
Or, should I pull together something else that might be useful to
guide the discussion?
to
guide that discussion. It is definitely a rough and incomplete work in
progress, but with enough initial material for sharing that link here
... mostly so that those of you interested in that discussion have some
time to read at least some of that material.
