This is not being very "democratic" of you. Funny how the new
mechanisms, seem to already be just like the old mechanisms :-}
This sounds as though you as an individual have already chosen the
format that we are going to use, and anyone else needs to do extra
work to steer things otherwise.

I thought you said we were going to "vote" on this in some fashion?

We should have our maintainers be fully informed voters.
The only way for everyone to be "fully informed", is to have an apples
to apples comparison.
Furthermore, it should be an example specifically tailored to *our*
needs, not just some generic asciidoc example.
We should vote on what best meets *our* needs, not what is best to
some generic asciidoc user.

Perhaps this is the job of the new secretary, to set this up?
I think this is Maciej?
