text/markdown effort in IETF (invite)

[Dennis E. Hamilton]

"Flavor" was handled in HTML with the DTD, FWIW.

Markdown is in the spot where HTML was before HTML5 with each implementation doing its own thing. I don't know if Markdown will get out of there anytime soon. I'll point out however that HTML never got anything like a "flavor" parameter in its MIME type, and even if it did it'd not have helped clear the mess in any way.
