[om-a] ANN: MathML goes mainstream!

[Bob Mathews]

Hi,

I am pleased to announce MSN has licensed Design Science's 
MathPlayer software in order to display MathML-based content in 
their new Math Homework Help feature. Math Homework Help gives 
students step-by-step guidance with problems in commonly-used 
textbooks. MathPlayer is used to display the MathML-based 
mathematical notation in Math Homework Help.

For further details, see the press release on our web site:

http://www.dessci.com/en/company/press/releases/sept03.htm

MathPlayer is also available as a free download on the Design 
Science web site, and we have had 100,000 downloads of 
MathPlayer since its release. This does not include MSN subscribers.

[MathML is the XML-based standard for encoding mathematics, 
developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), and supported 
by most popular web browsers.]
