I have already a rendering framework which supports multiple markups. The appropriate engine is selected by the mime type of the page.
Furthermore there is support for filters which can be stacked to allow more advanced processing of the markup.
Tilt is not a replacement for this because it is only a simple wrapper around some markup renderers. But it wouldn't be a problem to use tilt to implement filter or engine plugins. This would be a good thing.
I am considering to factor out the filter/engine system to a separate gem which could be also used in static page generators etc (similar to webby).
Tilt filter added
Tilt's become pretty popular. I've used it for a number of projects myself. I think if you submitted a patch for Creole support (real easy, I did the RDoc support myself), you could use Tilt for git-wiki and get support for many other markup types too.
