Hi Simon, > My concern is that there may be authors who wish to use both normal and > italic double-struck characters in a single publication with different > semantic meaning. That is now not possible. Our line will be that we will > try to persuade authors to pick their variants from the set provided by > mathml. We will see how far we get with that. Good luck, but suspect you share my skepticism that authors will gracefully accept such constraints if they feel they need both symbols. If it were me, I would probably just go ahead and use the deprecated MathML 1.0 attributes. They solve the problem, and I think basically all MathML software I know of support them, and will continue to do so for quite a while. --Robert ------------------------------------------------------------------ Dr. Robert Miner RobertM@dessci.com MathML 2.0 Specification Co-editor 651-223-2883 Design Science, Inc.
