Update: if anyone is thinking of writing directly to the IE accessibility team, note that the <a href="mailto:accLabs@microsoft.com">accLabs@microsoft.com</a> email is dead. Anyone have a valid email address to write directly to that group?<div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Perhaps you can lend the AHEAD IMAG effort your support.
It is critical to the issue of math and science accessibility that MathML be
fully supported in the next version of Internet Explorer as well as all other
browsers. According to this article this appears to not be the case in
IE9 which is scheduled to release in the next couple of months <a href="http://www.dessci.com/en/products/mathplayer/tech/MathMLinHTML5.htm" target="_blank">http://www.dessci.com/en/products/mathplayer/tech/MathMLinHTML5.htm</a></p>
