With regard to my comments on including math markup in the core DocBook At 03:55 PM 10/19/01 +0200, Peter Ring wrote: >Could you be more specific? > >Which math notations should be part of the core? > >What processing should be expected?
MathML would be fine, based on my limited experience with it. I could also deal with a much simpler scheme (as was, IIRC, proposed early in the MathML development) that is a simple descriptive markup (think TeX translated to XML/SGML). I would love to have functionality equivalent to TeX as part of the core -- since much of the coding I do is math-related, I find myself wanting DocBook for its output formats and TeX for its expression of math. But I could live with support for inline and displayed equations, which contain PCDATA (which gets me the ISO math symbols), and sub- and superscripts. If I got to wish for more, I'd add simple arrays. Mark B.
