- Mozilla MathML Project (Frédéric Wang) - Are you developing math tools for e-education, e-publishing, accessibility or FirefoxOS? Are you willing to publish your LaTeX papers as real Web pages? Are you tired of the poor quality of math images on Wikipedia and other sites? Do you want to make your math pages really compatible with DOM, Javascript, CSS, HTML or SVG? Have you ever dreamt to use math in e-mails, chat clients, blogs, wikis, search engines or HTML editors? Are you familiar with Arabic notations or handwriting recognition? Then come to our booth to discover how the Mozilla MathML implementation can help and try some cool demos! Let's discuss what currently works and what requires improvements. Whether you need complex equations for your favorite scientific topics or just think elementary math on e-content is important for school children, you will certainly find something interesting!
