Hi,
You might have recognized that there have been a discussion on which markuplangauge/technique we will use for future Geany newsletter to write and create PDF/HTML/other output formats in.
During this discussion a lot of different languages and ways have been suggested so decision is not easy. However, we (well, I) decided to do it on a more democratic way by doing a poll about.
But before we are doing this poll we need to collect all possible ideas and put some basic facts together. To do so I did create a wiki page (please don't care about the theme for the moment as this is under discussion inside another thread) at http://wiki.geany.org/newsletter/markuplanguages where I like to ask everybody to enter suggestions based on a minimal feature list I put together you can also find at this page.
Based on that list I will create a poll upcoming weekend (around June, 4th) - I will announce tis inside another mail with some basic rules.
Cheers, Frank

I've just started the poll with all options given inside the wiki at http://wiki.geany.org/newsletter/markuplanguages
You can join the poll at http://doodle.com/nnrmb2bakye8m4sz
Please be so fair and do only do participate, if you really want to contribute or have any other connection to the newsletter.
I will close the poll upcoming weekend (11. June)
Cheers, Frank
As we all know, first version of the wishlist wasn't prepared for such big number of future requests. So it had to be closed. Now people may post them at the Sourceforge tracker. But it also isn't too readable. So here is my idea:
1. Users should have ability to vote for future requests 2. Users should have ability to sort future requests by number of votes and timestamp 3. Future requests should have tags
What do you think about it?

In general good idea, but, well, as far as I know this is not supported by SF wish list, so this would mean to have something else installed.
I've got nothing against, but will not actively look for any suitable solution.

Well, still early in the morning CEST, but I guess the outcome was clear: Currently we do have 6 participants. 5 votes for ReST, 2 for AsciiDoc and one for LaTeX. Beside one which voted for ReST all of the participants don't care much about in addition to its favorite choice. So we do have a decision: issue 3+ will be done in ReST.
Next steps (just a few points): Colomban did some nice work on creating the pdf from ReST a couple of days ago. I will merge his changes into master and will start to convert issue 1 and 2 to latest version so newsletter looks the same. Also Russell did start to write some cool content for issue 3 as well as there have been some discussion on linking and putting which content to newsletter/wiki during last days on mailing list.
I did not yet set a release date but I guess sometime mid July would be a good idea.
Cheers, Frank

This has been done with merging the working branch back into master.
