The idea that since markdown hasn't done anything in years its somehow being stewarded improperly is a bit foolish. Look at Gruber's vision statement, he wanted to make an easy-to-read easy-to-write markup.

He did it, it is done, it's called markdown. If Atwood had his way Gruber would have spent the last 4 years filling it up with features and today we would be reading a post about how Markdown went from slim and sleek to fat and bloated.
