I have nothing against pier syntax. But imagine person coming from outside, who used markdown to ask questions on stack overflow and write readmes on github, and here he has to use a different syntax for the same purpose. Just a thought about bringing new people into a community :)

with the same attitute, why do you do smalltalk when there is JS?

I don�t see what is new in Pier.

I do not get what something would have to be new in pier. It just WORKS for what it was built and before
markdown came alone. OK the world is going to use makrdown until a guy in power will be feed up and add an extension to github and 
the world will be happy and cry of joy. We are not such people but we have a working solution so that we can 
write versioned, syntax neutral books and documentation. And we will do it.

Now I know a plan about big extension.

Can you understand that pier is working for us? And that we spent time making sure that 
we can have an infrastructure to really produce documents with it. 
So why suddenly we should abandon it.

Can you think two minutes in our place?
