Hi Dave, Thank you for your message. It's good to see that you are still interested in what's happening in WebKit MathML. I believe we agree with the goals you state, however most of your claims on flexbox VS a separate renderer class seemed to be assumptions you made 3 years ago. People (includin

Hi Dave, thanks very much for your comments and feedback, this information is great to document the whole design process of the code. I agree with the goals you are pointing out, actually I think the change to use flexbox was a good option to try at that point. But currently considering the resu

Hi Alex, I think this refactoring makes a lot of sense. This is very close to what I wanted to do with MathML four years ago so I'm very happy to hear that you're taking the initiative here. - R. Niwa On Wed, Dec 9, 2015 at 3:35 AM, Alejandro Garcia Castro wrote: > > Hi, > > In the last months

Hi, In the last months we have been working on refactoring the MathML layout code to make it more maintainable, because in the current point fixing issues or adding new features has been too complex. We have reached the point where we think we have to discuss whether this work makes sense and wh
