New in XWiki Syntax 2.1 over XWiki Syntax 1.0:
- Spaces are allowed just after the syntax symbols (for example in XWiki Syntax 1.0, this was not possible: * bold *).
- Use double symbols when there was only a single symbol in XWiki Syntax 1.0 so that it's less likely that the user will mistakenly use them in text.
- Ability to span several lines (wasn't possible in XWiki Syntax 1.0).
