      It is 2014, Bitbucket and Confluence (OnDemand) seem to support markdown syntax fairly well. It is about time JIRA does too

            Looks like this is duplicated by JRASERVER-44898, JRASERVER-61738, and JRASERVER-62869.

            From one of the Jira guys at Yelp:

            > 08-18 12:20 <== jira should handle github style markdown
            > 08-18 12:21 <== feature request if anybody is open to the idea

            This is something that if not fixed will age JIRA into irrelevancy. Every other tool is using Markdown (GitHub, Slack, etc.), it's sad to see JIRA move slowly on this.

            This would be helpful for us as well, and as Bitbucket users the inconsistency is noticeable.

            When do you expect to have support for markdown?
