This is nice looking, and I like the inline conversion of Markdown to visualized content. However, NSA.<p>What I mean by that is I don&#x27;t want yet another third-party web service hosting my documents. I&#x27;d love this if it were something I could download and install in my network in the same manner as Etherpad Lite [1].<p>I&#x27;d even pay for it if I could install it in my environment because it looks slightly more glamorous than Etherpad.<p>[1] <a href="http://etherpad.org/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;etherpad.org&#x2F;</a>

I&#x27;d pay for this and use it daily if it had inline comments, a la google docs. I&#x27;ve wanted a very long time Google Docs but in markdown. I want to collaboratively build a document but be able to comment (as metadata, not as text in the document itself) on certain paragraphs, bullet points, sentences, etc and have a discussion around those comments.
