            Bug ID: 1198433
           Summary: Replace Seam Text with CommonMark (MarkDown)
           Product: Zanata

To get rid of Seam (bug 1094534) we need to get rid of Seam Text.  Seam Text
and the RichFaces editor for it have been a source of bugs, plus it is not a
standard format users are familiar with.

We plan to replace our current support for editing and rendering Seam Text with
support for CommonMark (standardised MarkDown).

Automatically migrating the existing Seam Text to CommonMark is out of scope
due to complexity (eg see bug 1065234), but we will track whether each piece of
text has been saved since CommonMark support was added.  This will let us
notify the user, and could potentially be used to enable an automatic migration
in future, should someone implement it.
