Re: Help get math turned back on in Chrome

Please be respectful of the Chrome folks. What's the proof that they are
dishonest and not caring?

Development is hard and manpower is finite and they have to select what
they support. They want a good product and I think they have the right and
authority to say "the code is not yet production ready".

They said "We hope to turn it on in some future release.". You don't
believe them?
