~fabrixxm/confy#19: 
Markdown formatted links show up verbatim in the UI (unclickable links)

Hi,

markdown like text, e.g.

some text

will currently not get rendered "correctly" and links are not clickable.

for an example you can look at the If you look at Debconf 22 -> 2022-07-19 ->  "Investigating a tier system for Release Architectures"

Or look at the attached screenshot.

I will provide a re.sub() patch shortly; An alternative would probably be using python3-markdown to render markdown formatted description texts to HTML, but not sure how you feel about adding a dependency and how widespread it is to have markdown in event descriptions.

-- Cheers,

The patch 34078 has been applied.

As we don't really know if the text is markdown, there could be issues where the text isn't a markdown link and should be displayed verbatim.

But we cannot read minds yet, so for now it's ok.

Thank you.
