[Athen] MathML in HTML5: Internet Explorer 9 is Broken

[Ken Petri]

Ron,

I ran the tests and submitted a comment on the IE bug in the MS bug tracker.
I also wrote directly to the IE team in support of continued operability of
MathPlayer within IE. I hope others on this list do something similar. If we
have a groundswell of support, maybe we will even see IE natively (sans
plugin) support MathML rendering.

Best regards,
ken
