Mozilla MathML Project Underway

Friday May 14th, 1999

David Fiddes writes in with good news.

"This is to announce that a project to support MathML has started. The aim of the project is to provide a comprehensive mathematical expression display system with the capability to edit mathematics in the Editor and translate from common typesetting languages like LaTeX/TeX."

Check out the MathML page at mozilla.org, and also stop in at the netscape.public.mozilla.mathml newsgroup. It's also interesting to note that the volunteers so far all have non-Netscape email addresses.

There should a also a HTML/MathML -> TeX converter, to complete the support

This should be fairly easy to build.

I suspect that the TeX stuff will probably end up as an add-on fairly separate from Mozilla but that depends on what folk think...and what get's coded ;)
