[jira] [Created] (DOXIA-535) Support .markdown extension

Vratko Polak created DOXIA-535:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Support .markdown extension
                 Key: DOXIA-535
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DOXIA-535
             Project: Maven Doxia
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Module - Markdown
            Reporter: Vratko Polak


Currently, "md" is the only extension identifying markdown files for Doxia. There are many [0] extensions identifying markdown. GitHub uses "md", but it is also interpreting markdown somewhat differently [1]. Wikipedia article [2] offers "markdown" as an alternative extension, citing [3] the author of markdown, who agrees [4] with proponents of this extension.

Please, add a support for "markdown" extension;
possibly keeping it for standard markdown and leaving "md" for the GitHub style.
