Hello WebKit developers, As some of you may know, Igalia is working on MathML support in Chromium this year [1]. As part of that effort we joined a new MathML Refresh Community Group [2] and one goal is to focus on a core spec for browser implementations [3] to: - Remove deprecated/uncommon/duplicate math features that could be implemented by polyfills (relying on MathML core and other web technologies). - Add more detailed algorithms (based on TeX/OpenType/CSS layout) to help implementation and conformance testing. - Align MathML with CSS/HTML (parsing, layout...), introducing new web platform features (CSS, fonts...) for math if necessary.
We expect that this effort will improve browser interoperability and reduce complexity of current implementations. This is just a heads up to say that we will send patches to update/remove/add features. For people who are interested, we opened a meta bug to track these changes [4].
