Should we create an issue for the PDF/HTML generation with Pandoc, or change the focus of this ticket?
I don't know. I'm sure Pandoc is a great but I can't install and make it work. The tool isn't in the public repositories for Debian / Ubuntu and I can't see which repository to add... We have now a chain to generate HTML / PDF from markdown...
I see. I thought we already had something in place for the Restlet.org web site to produce the HTML from the MD. @thboileau knows for sure. Let's just make sure we use the same tools.
Okay. Sounds good to me
pandoc can be installed simply using apt-get command on ubuntu.
Yes, I finally installed it. Doesn't know what exactly happened the first time I tried to install it...

They write the doc in the markdown format (easy with GitHub): http://github.github.com/github-flavored-markdown/
We can then produce HTML and PDF pretty easily using tools such as Pandoc or similar tools: http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc/
That could be much more convenient to write, maintain and receive contributions thanks to GitHub.
