Thanks to @bozhidar for all that he does AND it seems he has also taken on brushing the dust off Emacs https://github.com/bbatsov/adoc-mode! 💜

You're welcome! 🙂 And yeah - I've agreed to step in as the maintainer of adoc-mode recently. (I'm a big user of AsciiDoc) Hopefully I'll manage to get in a better shape in the long run.

lread14:08:04

AsciiDoc is my preference too. If you want/need some help it might be a good spot for me to dip my toe into Elisp, lemme know.

Oh, how I have dreamed of this! Thank you, @bozhidar!

zane14:08:54

I’d also love to help out if possible.

I won't have much time for adoc-mode, so any help would be most welcome!

zane15:08:08

I’m curious what your plans are for it. My understanding is that it has some issues because it tries to do too much. Are you thinking of preserving the existing feature set, or will you look into slimming it down?

bozhidar15:08:00

I was thinking of slimming it down first, modernizing a bit the code and moving from there.

bozhidar15:08:19

E.g. I'll likely kill the tempo-templating.

zane15:08:29

That sounds fantastic.

zane15:08:31

How can we best go about pitching in?

bozhidar15:08:59

You can add some items/ideas here https://github.com/bbatsov/adoc-mode/wiki/Roadmap or in the discussions section. There are also a few tickets already created, plus a few that I've migrated from the old project.

My long-term plan is to get the mode to the state of Markdown mode today.

Support for all the modern syntax, source block highlighting, maybe even some preview functionality.

zane15:08:40

Amazing.

zane15:08:54

Even just the first two would be fantastic.
