Question

Markdown and SCC integration in FM2017

Browsed the FM 2017 announcements, and even though there seems to many nice additions and fixes I can't seem to find the important bullet about importing text-formatted files (md, commonmark, rst or such). Nor any mentions about source-code (Github, Mercurial, Svn or such) or Cloud-storage such as Dropbox/OneDrive/GDrive etc integration. Odd. I hope I'm just overlooking something here...

    Dropbox integration has been available for a while. File > Utilities > Dropbox. But I don't know why it's limited to just that option.

    I wonder if the CMS API could be used to attach to Source Code management systems?

    Indeed, Dropbox integration is there, I knew about it but had forgotten, TY for reminding me. I guess the main point I was trying to make is the lack of easy usage/import of typically markdown (or one of it's variants) for collaboration. Surely one could write an integration to one of the major SCMs. But that's work and time is a limited resource. Still find it slightly odd that Adobe has decided (?) not to prioritize these features. Got to be a very common request I would think.
