Hi,

it would allow GitHub users and others to include the Markdown text directly (and ideally have it automatically update), rather than screen-scraping an HTML page.

If screen-scraping is still the way to go, could a publication timestamp be added to those pages that have boilerplate text, so one would know when something has changed?

Thanks,
Lars
