</div><div>After the initial discussion I had with Gonzalo last Monday, we agreed to use Markdown [1] as the base for the source Help files. Existing help content [2] is in rst and they needs to be converted to Markdown. I've used pandoc [3] to convert those rts source files to Markdown and has pushed them to a fork [4] the repo. So  the developers can either use rst or Markdown to write their source help files.</div>
