MarkDown is great. The current documentation of the above repository are
with the GitHub flavor of MarkDown plus some HTML. The advantage is that the
documentation is already rendered on Github and there is not need to have a
different website for that... RMarkDown, MultiMarkDown and other flavors of
MD are of course way better. But I Opted for AsciiDoc and I think it has a
way better support and features. For example see my post  here

That seems like a great piece of work. It would be great if competent people
like you could contribute to the repository.

True. Scilab could benefit a lot from better documentation. As a humble user
I do my part to help, hopefully the key members of the community and core
developers will support. 

Best,
Foad
