This seems very useful for understanding the Frege notation.  I can add it 
to the mpeuni directory.  However, the mmfrege.html file should 
pass http://validator.w3.org, and the main header should be centered like 
on the other  website pages.  Also, there are a large number of separate 
svg files; perhaps you can prefix the svg file names with "_frege_" so they 
can be more easily identified.  Currently we are keeping svg files in the 
same directory as html files (perhaps not the greatest practice, but it's 
what the site creation scripts currently expect), so the you would 
reference "fregenotation/jABinS.svg" as "_frege_jABinS.svg" in the html 
file.

For referencing mmfrege.html in a set.mm comment, you can use "~ 
mmfrege.html".  The "mm" prefix identifies it as something other than a 
set.mm label (labels beginning with "mm" are not allowed by "verify 
markup").
