Dear gang,
This just in. Slightly off-topic, but in the wake of the recent markdown
thread some of you may find this approach interesting or a source of ideas
for doing something similar in ConTeXt.
Best wishes
Idris

Subject: ANNOUNCE: pandoc scholar
Date: Mon, 08 May 2017 11:43:42 -0600
I'm happy to announce pandoc scholar, a tool and general effort to
enable and promote the use of pandoc markdown as a format for scientific
publishing https://github.com/pandoc-scholar.
We developed conventions, lua scripts, and accompanying makefiles to
make authoring of scientific articles as simple and comfortable as
possible, enabling authors to semantically enrich their manuscripts with
additional metadata. The corresponding manuscript has been published
today in PeerJ CS: https://peerj.com/articles/cs-112/.
The pandoc scholar utility was build with compatibility in mind,
requiring only `pandoc` and `make`. Most computations are performed
using lua scripts, using [panlunatic] to output the modified document as
pandoc JSON. Makefiles are used to hide the additional complexity and
to set sensible default options when calling pandoc. A styled html
template, which makes use of the additional metadata fields, is provided
as well.
Any feedback is welcome.
