 ** Dholbert to the rescue for layout issues
 * MathML
-** Significant outstanding issues are dependencies of {{Bug|324857}}
+** Visually-significant outstanding issues are:
-** Would be nice to have enough issues fixed for beta 3 so that users can test
+*** Preferred width calculation {{Bug|363240}
-*** not sure if all major issues will be resolved by then
+**** A possible patch using reflow with unconstrained widths should be ready for review within a day or two.
-*** would need a cairo upgrade or cherry pick for Windows users
+*** Wrong glyphs selected when font subfamilies don't have the same glyph sets on MS Windows {{Bug|382542}} and Linux {{Bug|401988}}
-*** not clear the best way to fix {{Bug|363240}} - preferred width for mtable
+**** Shouldn't be major to fix these but may affect Ts on Windows.  Unlikely to be done for beta 3.
-**** seems that needs to go back to reflowing with unconstrained width
+** With these issues resolved, rendering is respectable with STIX beta fonts.
+** Could make some small enhancements so that rendering is significantly better with default platform fonts.
+*** Current state without downloading extra fonts is that some things are better than FF2, but some things are worse.
 * Vista Breakpad
 ** IT has cert on order - {{Bug|398807}} (err, should that be {{bug|390568}}? -jwatt)
