A while ago, I guess around November, I began working on some changes to
markdown.py that would completely eliminate the need for regular
expressions, or searching through a string for patterns to be replaced
with other text.
I was mostly successful. I got rid of the Stash concept completely, as
well as postprocessing. The change resulted in markdown.py being 260
lines shorter, and although I didn't time it I'm certain my changes
result in quicker run times.
I had intended to clean it up so that it passed all the included tests
and then announce it to the list, but around October I started playing
around with ikiwiki. I liked it so much that I dropped my wiki project,
and therefore quit working on the python markdown implementation.
If anybody's interested in what I've done, you can check out my git
project:
http://woozle.org/~neale/gitweb.cgi?p=py-markdown
or you can pull in my git tree:

I'm happy to answer questions but I don't think I have it in my to do
any more work on things. Hopefully this is of some use to the project.
Neale
