I had remembered that `Markdown.jl` is the standard implementation of Markdown in Julia. I am working on a MyST-markdown wrapper in Julia, and I’m trying to see what the other implementations are.

I see `Markdown.jl` is part of the JuliaAttic organization on GitHub. Does that mean it is no longer maintained? What Markdown package will ship with Julia in the future? Or, will future Julia versions no longer support `using Markdown`, and will require `using CommonMark`, etc?
