This page was initially written to migrate the MathML project pages to wiki pages. Most of the work has been done so far and the new home page is: | |||
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Mozilla_MathML_Project | |||
The remaining work is essentially on MathML demos ({{bug|585142}}). | |||
Documentation for Web developers is available here: | |||
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/MathML | |||
whereas documentation for project contributors is on the present Wiki. If you want to help improving MathML documentation, feel free to edit all these wiki pages :-) | |||
