Has anyone had experience with Pandoc? <http://johnmacfarlane.net/
pandoc/>
I just found out about it: "If you need to convert files from one
markup format into another, pandoc is your swiss-army knife. [...]
Pandoc is free software, released under the GPL. © 2006–2011 John
MacFarlane."
I tried it on the site and it was impressive enough that I wanted to
download it to give it a real try BUT:

So, it is not for me but since there have been threads about
conversion, I thought I might mention it.
Very regretful regards
