I don't have a good way to recruit any other testers, unfortunately. I'm not sure how many people actually use org-generic-export; I do because I have wikis I need to write to and I can never remember all those oddball wiki syntaxen. Here's a question: what about setting up a branch on the core git repo and letting me push that patch there? Or you could push the patch to the branch yourself. That way people who are interested could test, and those who aren't interested could just ignore it. My patch seems really quite critical for anyone who DOES want to use org-generic-export. The existing generic export simply does not and CANNOT work when markup spreads across line boundaries. Generic export processes the org-mode file line-by-line. I fixed it to use the preprocessing that is done by other org exporters, bringing together multiple lines when there is markup (say italicization) that spreads across line boundaries. My next message will be a forwarding of a prior message containing the patches. I will send it only to you because I don't believe the mailing list will take it.
