Hello. This is my first post, so I apologize if I'm doing anything wrong.<div><br></div><div>I have a question/topic for conversation for John MacFarlane and any other long-time pandoc contributors:</div><div><br></div><div><b>If you were to start over from scratch today, what would you do differently?</b></div><div><br></div><div>If pandoc were never invented back in 2006, what are some different choices you would make today?</div><div>Would you use a different language (C++, Rust, Python)?</div><div>Different Haskell features (prefer Functors over Monads)?</div><div>Internal design architecture (completely re-written AST)?</div><div>Source-code structure (merge readers and writers so that each file format is specified in a single module instead of each file format being partially duplicated in a reader and a writer implementation)?</div><div><br></div><div>Those are all just examples. Feel free to share whatever you like.</div>

<p></p>
