Presentation of Math on the Web
Updated: Oct 13th, 2006
The goal of this blog is to foster a discussion that will follow up on one begun at the 2006 Math Gateway Partners Meeting at the Mathematical Association of America in DC on April 8, 2006. There, Kyle Siegrist gave a summary of the state of MathML. What followed was a lively discussion of the merits and difficulties of writing and reading MathML compared with writing in TEX and converting to PDF files. In particular, Frank Wattenberg made the case for writing mathematics in TEX and converting the result to pdf files. This discussion is an opportunity for a detailed presentation of their opinions.
