Convert Textile Markup to Markdown?

I'm merging legacy Systems and some components use Markdown and others use Textile formatting. This is extremely confusing to my users. Therefore I want to standardize on Markdown.

Is there a way to convert at least the Bulk of Textile formatting to markdown automatically?

The forthcoming pandoc 1.8 (or the current github version) can convert Textile to Markdown directly. I don't know how much of Textile it handles, but

pandoc index.textile -o index.markdown

worked nicely here.
