Confluence's 'Export to Word' is a lie, so I wrote a Go tool strangers now file bugs against

At work I had to drag a pile of legacy IT controls, written years ago and scattered across many Confluence pages in several spaces, into line with industry frameworks like NIST and the Cloud Security Alliance's Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM). Step one of any job like that is "get the text out of Confluence". Step one is where it went wrong: Confluence's Export to Word button hands you a .doc file that is not a Word document.

So I wrote confluence2md: one binary, no runtime to install, pandoc hidden inside, clean Markdown out. Today it became Apache 2.0, because a stranger asked nicely. This is the build log.
