[lively-kernel] Markdown stopped working Re: Modularity, portability, GitHub

[Lauritz Thamsen]

Hi Milan.

Thanks for letting us know. This defect was indeed related to our refactoring efforts on github and the recent sync with Webwerkstatt. The Markdown morph should work again and some new tests should prevent further regression of this jQuery interface.

Also, we should are done with the sync. So, please continue informing us about defects, since Webwerkstatt shouldn't be in flux any longer. 

Please use webwerkstatt's trac if you think that a bug is only related to our Webwerkstatt deployment (examples: parts, version support, worlds in Webwerkstatt, user or project modules, ...) and create a github issue if you think it's an issue in a module in /core/. 
If you're not sure, it's probably good to prefer Webwerkstatt for now, but we'll follow both tracking systems closely – so either way is really fine.

Best,
Lauriz
