W3C Announces Approval of MathML Standard
The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the ISO/IEC JTC 1 Information technology group approved the MathML Version 3.0 2nd Edition as an ISO/IEC International Standard. MathML is used in software and development tools for various expressions of math on the web (i.e., visual presentations of formulas and their semantics).“This important scientific standard, which is already widely deployed internationally, can now benefit from additional formal recognition from ISO, IEC and their national member bodies,” says Jeff Jaffe, W3C’s CEO. “The ISO/IEC recognition is expected to increase internationally harmonized adoption of MathML not only by standards bodies, governments and the scientific and academic communities, but also by browser makers, educational publishers and the broader Web community.” For more information, read the press release.
