I've had folks from OpenDevise reach out to me and let me know that they're
launching a standardization initiative for AsciiDoc under the Eclipe
Foundation's open standardization process.  The goal is to standardize the
language, ensure compatibility across implementations, and provide a reference
implementation, with input from implementers, users, and others.

They'd like to extend an invitation for the Git project to send a
representative, since we're a significant user of AsciiDoc.  I'm sending out
this email to see what the project thinks and if anyone would be interested in
fulfulling that role.

Here's a bit of a summary on what will be involved:

  As a Working Group member, the Git project will have the opportunity to:

  - Influence the scope and roadmap of the AsciiDoc standardization effort
  - Help define the AsciiDoc specification, including terminology, syntax,
  document model, behavior, and extension points
  - Establish compatibility rules that ensure portability and
  interoperability of content and language extensions

  To learn more about the AsciiDoc Working Group and how it works, please
  refer to the welcome messages on the mailing list:

  - https://www.eclipse.org/lists/asciidoc-wg/msg00001.html
  - https://www.eclipse.org/lists/asciidoc-wg/msg00002.html

If anyone has any questions, I'll do my best to answer them, or to pull in folks
who can if I can't.
