Markdown Discuss - Aug 2011 - uniform type indicator

this is fascinating:

i don't know (and don't care about) any possible significance of
such a pronouncement on a "uniform type indicator", but i think
that it's interesting that gruber has decided to make _any_ type
of statement on markdown, with the big moves now underfoot,
and doubly so when he chooses to communicate it via his blog
-- which is public, but has zero public feedback mechanism --
and not also here, where markdown developers hold discussions.

this is not a judgment -- of any type -- merely an observation...

Anyone know what or who prompted this?
