Re: definitive markaby

Mab is going to be the new one going forward. If I remember right, the reasons for this were:

1) Markaby isn't very well maintained these days
2) Markaby is all about xhtml, which is totally irrelevant to the modern web.
3) Markaby doesn't explicitly have a license allowing us to do stuff to it.

I think that's what the deal was. 

Maybe this has changed since then, maybe not. For a time new installations of camping wouldn't work, due to Markaby becoming incompatible with an update to it's dependancy Builder.

Re: definitive markaby

thanks - a compact but completely-formed answer. So 'mab is the Camping-specific markaby' would be an accurate statement? - DaveE

Re: definitive markaby

I made those changes to Markaby to be able to use it with HTML5.

I couldn't be bothered rewriting my code to get it to use mab or whatever is the current flavour of the day for spitting out HTML.
