Subject: mdocml: In markdown, autolinks are dangerous.
Date: Sat, 11 Mar 2017 07:36:20 -0500 (EST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7042925090800702050.enqueue@fantadrom.bsd.lv> (raw)

Log Message:
-----------
In markdown, autolinks are dangerous.  Different compilers disagree
with respect to what constitutes a valid autolink, and if a compiler
deems an autolink invalid, the input turns into an unintended and
potentially harmful raw HTML tag.  So, never write autolinks.
Instead of <link>, write [link](link).
Instead of <addr>, write [addr](mailto:addr).

Issue pointed out by bentley@, who also agrees with the general
direction of the change.
