## About kramdown
kramdown (sic, not Kramdown or KramDown, just kramdown) is a *free*
GPL-licensed [Ruby](http://www.ruby-lang.org) library for parsing a
superset of Markdown. It is completely written in Ruby, supports
standard Markdown (with some minor modifications) and various
extensions that have been made popular by the PHP Markdown Extra
package and Maruku.

## kramdown 1.0.2 released
This release fixes some bugs; updating is recommended.
Some notes:

performance of kramdown (requested by postmodern).

extend kramdown (idea by postmodern).
