Not sure what it's supposed to do, but the pages I tried it on came out looking pretty bad.

Hmm, a browser can support different MIME  types, this is just another one.

I mean, one wouldn’t convert JPEG to HTML.

​An RFC?! Wow!

 I knew there were folks trying to standardize markdown due to spreading "flavors" like Github Flavored Markdown, and others adding tables & other additions.
.. and they've got a good point about bugs and weird end-of-line whitespace.

Gruber had some problems, especially the initial name Standard Markdown, thus the current name CommonMark.

​The key change from the first "standards" approach and the current one is that the current one only "fixes" Gruber's.  Extensions like tables come later.

I do know that using various markdown variants is tough. GitHub screws up the 4 space indent at times in comments/issues. Still requires experiments to see what it eventually looks like!​
