 Teachers from Centrale Nantes would like to be able to add math equations to the annotation of a submission. The tool chosen is MathML. Documentation on MathML can be found at : http://www.w3.org/Math/XSL/

 Not sure which link you mean. This one perhaps? http://www.w3.org/Math/XSL/mml2002-01.xml

 Patch from @papplmarkus from RB: https://gist.github.com/4055342 Description was: We added support for MathML, Tex and LaTex equation. We used MathJax library because it was the most elegant and efficient way to do it. It offers functionnalities like zooming on the equation, and the most important : the ability to display those equations in a cross-browser way and render them with very high quality, dynamically. Here is the GitHub repository for this : https://github.com/papplmarkus/Markus/tree/MathMLIntegration For more information on Typeset function in MathJax : http://www.mathjax.org/docs/1.1/typeset.html MathJax has been put in a submodule (thanks to @NelleV), so if you want to try it do : $git submodule init$ git submodule update Thanks for your reviews. Update : you can find MathML and Tex Samples here http://www.mathjax.org/demos/mathml-samples/ http://www.mathjax.org/demos/tex-samples/ Just right-click, and click on "Show Source" and Voilà! Update 2 : A screencast is coming soon! Thanks for all your supports!

 @paymog You can see in an above comment an old patch; this might be a good starting point for you!

 Do we know why this wasn't merged into master?

 Not sure, but it is certainly possible there is no good reason.
