About kramdown
kramdown (sic, not Kramdown or KramDown, just kramdown) is a free
GPL-licensed Ruby library for parsing a
superset of Markdown. It is completely written in Ruby, supports
standard Markdown (with some minor modifications) and various
extensions that have been made popular by the PHP Markdown Extra
package and Maruku.

kramdown 1.0.0 released
Finally! After four years of development I proudly present you
kramdown 1.0.0!
Naturally, it is recommened to update to this version.
Although the version number now starts with one, the changes from the
last release are mostly bug fixes and some small changes. The biggest
change is the license change: Until now kramdown was released under
the GPL but starting from 1.0.0 it is released under the MIT
license!
The MIT license allows the use of kramdown in a commercial setting.
However, if you are using kramdown in a commercial setting, I ask you
to contribute back any changes you make for the benefit of the
community and/or to make a donation - thanks in advance!
