Also the fact that there are multiple (and good) client-side Markdown libraries while stuff like AsciiDoc generally requires server-side rendering (and the associated server load and round-trip penalties).

Unless I'm missing it, there's no pure client-side AsciiDoc?

[1] seems to be an AsciiDoc render on client-side, though have no idea if it's any good though...

Yeah, hard to say without a live demo. Also, downloading an entire Ruby interpreter in JS seems a little on the heavy side. If you were going to go that route, might as well use texlive.js and get a full-blown LaTeX system. :-)

Cool nonetheless.
