Bug #: 34038
Summary: Grammar and semantics need to be specified
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Math (texvc)
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
So that it isn't lost in bug 17465, comment 3 and 4, the grammar and semantics
of the <math> tag need to be specified. At the moment, the grammar is somehow
defined by texvc, while the semantics differ between TeX source, TeX source as
generated by texvc, (still) HTML as generated by texvc and rendering by
MathJax.
Personally, I'd opt for TeX as it's stable -- Knuth has made a point of not
changing TeX's behaviour so that authors can rely on it. Renderings that
differ from TeX's interpretation of input should be considered bugs to be
fixed.
Note that this doesn't mean that we have to specify TeX's behaviour.
