Re: Improve import/export of maths

Hi Kassay,

Thanks for your interest.

The idea for now is convert mathml to rtf and back, and we'll also need
to convert mathml to latex (actually itex) which is the language we use
to edit maths in abiword. I don't know which format uses open office (or
libre office these days) but it would also be nice to imort maths from
there (as well as export of course).

I suppose you can develop on Windows, but I can't help there, using
Linux since 10+ years.

You might come on IRC (#abiword at irc.gimp.net) to discuss with us.

Best reagrds,
Jean
