Support GFM for NomCom pages #6074

Open martinthomson opened 1 year ago

(Original title: Support GFM for NomCom pages)

Description

We use markdown for wiki pages, but RST here. Converting is a real pain. A convertor tool might suffice.

Code of Conduct

rjsparks commented 1 year ago

The templates can be set to be interpreted as markdown (fireball markdown with extensions, not GFM). They are currently RST because the default templates that were copied in were that way.

Do you want me to make the configuration page for all of the pages for this nomcom? The content will have to be adjusted when the change is made, but if there is copy from the wiki, it would make working forward easier.

We could also convert the default pages from rst to markdown before the next NomCom is created.

Right now, it would be work to change, so maybe defer this to next time. But markdown being consistent with other tooling suggests that it might be a better choice for a default next time.
