WHATWG doesn't have a position on this -- different contributors have different opinions, and no clear consensus is being reached as far as I can tell. Personally I think the best way of demonstrating that no browser-native support is required would be for someone to develop a specification for mathematics markup using the microformats.org principles. If this demonstrates that it really is possible to create viable math markup in HTML and have it completely styled in CSS then that would be a good step forward. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
