Similar to GitHub flavor's autolink extension (https://github.github.com/gfm/#extended-autolink-path-validation) the "org.eclipse.mylyn.wikitext.markdown" plugin should support automatic detection of URLs without the need of '<' and '>' delimiters. A similar feature is already implemented for the CommonMark bundle (see bug 468900). Since this can only be done via a heuristic, the feature should probably only be an optional one, one can opt-in on the level of org.eclipse.mylyn.wikitext.markdown.MarkdownLanguage. Background: This feature was requested by a user of Eclipse Corrosion (https://github.com/eclipse/corrosion/issues/277). Corrosion is based on LSP4E, which uses the MarkupParser with MarkdownLanguage to show Markdown as HTML in Hovers. I have a commit ready (as a start of a discussion) that I will push to Gerrit soon. It is closer to GitHub flavored Mardkown than the implementation in the CommonMark bundle.

Is there anything that can be done to help reviewers? If more documentation/explanation is needed or I should manually test something, let me know. I understand if committers maybe don't have time at the moment or there is a feature freeze or something. Just if there is something I can help with to make progress on the issue, let me know.
Gerrit change https://git.eclipse.org/r/155621 was merged to [master]. Commit: http://git.eclipse.org/c/mylyn/org.eclipse.mylyn.docs.git/commit/?id=97ec756860751a6a448075d05502fe9caf127ffb
Thanks Max! This looks like a nice new feature.
Thanks for accepting the contribution! Is there already a roadmap when the next Mylyn Docs release is scheduled? The governance page does not show a planned upcoming release: https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/mylyn.docs/governance It would be great if releases of the downstream projects LSP4E and Corrosion can be planned accordingly to incorporate the chance as well.

If I'm not mistaken, Mylyn Docs releases generally happen just before the Eclipse Simrels.
