Re: online editor of Presentation and Content MathML

At the risk of putting words in Paul's mouth, I think what he is asking is
for you to report the results for of the current test suite.  In order for
MathML3 to pass to "proposed recommendation", we need to show the results of
several implementations.  Since Formulator supports so much of MathML, it
would be an excellent candidate to include in the testsuite results.

If you can't directly run the testsuite runner listed on
http://www.w3.org/Math/testsuite/build/main/

I'm sure Paul can help you so that you can get a version that can be run
with Formulator so that the results get reported and can be included in the
results page.
