Description (last modified by Adrian Holovaty)

We should add a django.contrib.markup app, which would simply contain template tags to convert between markup languages such as Textile, Markdown, ReST, etc.

Here's a patch for a "textile" template filter:

Erm, sorry. It would have been better to submit the ticket and then attached the patch in a file.

I'll know for next time!

I support this! It might be good to get Markdown support in here as well. I'm a huge Textile fan, just to disclose my intentions ;)
