Re: MathML Core authoring tools?

Hi Bruce, all,

Is there anything problematic with removing seemingly outdated entries from
that page? It leads with:
"This page by the MathWG keeps a non-exhaustive list", and maybe it can
also clarify that it bookkeeps "tools with active maintenance".

I think we can delegate to wikipedia for the "exhaustive" encyclopedic
bookkeeping, as long as we had a MathML historian (or two, or three) who
wanted to collect all of that metadata.

For some examples, the wiki page on "formula editor" has a table of
available systems, 36 (thirty six) of which claim to have MathML support:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formula_editor

Just that table spans 2+ vertical screens on my large monitor.

Similarly, there was a list I sent around with 16 mathml-to-latex formula
conversion tools, and I have another list with 10 actively maintained
latex-to-HTML5+MathML document converters. I think the tally is even longer
for the single formula latex-to-mathml tools, which should easily be over
20 across programming languages. Oh, and KaTeX is missing from the
polyfills, which is unfortunate.

All of that said as to illustrate that with so many possible entries it may
be useful to strip away old projects with no ongoing maintenance. To pick
an example at random, the SnuggleTeX release notes indicate the last
release was in 2010:
https://www2.ph.ed.ac.uk/snuggletex/documentation/release-notes.html

So at the least I think an email to the authors is in order, asking if they
anticipate future work updating their project to MathML Core. A lot of
ground can be covered with ~50 emails, if someone had a snowed-in Saturday
afternoon.

Greetings,
Deyan
