I just received a confirmation from the organiser of the Mathematica
Symposium of Users ( London June 11th-13th 2012 ) , that my paper has
been accepted.
You can find below the text of the abstract i sent (one month ago).
Some participants of this meeting will likely want to try TeXmacs.
It would be great -if possible - to provide them an installable version
of a plugin Mathematica.
I have myself a version of Andrey's plugin, working well on my mac
thanks to the great help of Philippe and Miguel,
but I'm unable to summarize how Miguel did that job ( i kept all the
stuff generated during the compilation ).
I would appreciate any idea/advice on what should possibly say/show/ask
at the meeting.

Abstract:
/As a regular user of both Mathematica and the editing platform
GNU-TeXmacs, I started about two years ago developing some packages for
interfacing Mathematica and TeXmacs. That allowed me to export most of
the Mathematica expressions into TeXmacs, and to generate most of the
TeXmacs objects ( graphical elements, tables ) using Mathematica.
On the basis of this I developed some pedagogic material, with
numerous examples of application, easily available via a TeXmacs
plugin-menu.
Some of these features of this program are:
- Ability to generate sophisticated mixtures of graphs and text ( 2D ),
such that: graphs, diagrams, fregean ideography, development of
euclidian division etc...
Using TeXmacs in place of the standard Mathematica front end, all
the results can be reedited in the friendly framework of TeXmacs with
its high-quality typesetting, and printed with a LaTeX quality.
- Possibility of doing some step by step constructions in geometry ( but
not dynamic ) like adding geometrical elements
( points, segment by points, parallel to segment by other points,
circle, squares, polygons ... )
- Possibility to import data from a ( TeXmacs ) file containing arrays
or geometric figures for evaluating coordinates, angles, distances, areas...
- Possible transformations (2D) of most of the geometric objects (
combination of translations, rotations, symmetries, Möbius )
- Representation of the solutions of some differential equations
associate to a given direction vectorial files.
( Unsing TeXmacs, we can add points manually in a region of the
vectorial field or by introducing the coordinates.
The analytic solutions ( for the curves by each given point ) are
written in an associated table ).
- Basic curve and (multi-curves ) stretching, with representation of
intersections and extrema. Curves of regression.
- Finding the properties of binary operations ( associativity,
commutativity conditions for structure of group ) or binary relation
( reflexivity, transitivity, symmetry ) for finite sets of various
object ( numbers, matrices, functions ) ./

Dear Bertrand,
Sure!
I do think however that it would be necessary to make things easier to use.
In particular, we should try hard to integrate your work directly into
the existing Mathematica plug-in (and if possible, by keeping backward
compatabiliy; at home, I still have an old version of Mathematica that
Andrey gave me; I can test any improvements you make using that version).
I understood that you got the old Mathematica plug-in to work for you
at the workshop. Could you or Andrey please commit this updated plug-in
if you think that it is OK and does not break the old version?
Then I will test on my machine and we can start working on integrating
the core of your work into the updated plug-in.
Best wishes, --Joris

/Dear Bratschi Bertrand,
The International Mathematica Symposium is an independently
organized, interdisciplinary conference for and by users of
Mathematica.
If you use Mathematica in research or teaching, or if you have
developed or are developing products based on Mathematica, then
IMS is an opportunity to share your results with like-minded
colleagues. IMS has built up a deserved reputation as an
exceptionally convivial and friendly gathering.
The 2012 International Mathematica Symposium will be hosted by
the Departments of Mathematics and Computer Science at University
College London in June 2012.
With sessions already including GPU and grid applications,
education, and finance, now is the opportunity for you to submit
papers for possible inclusion in the conference.
The abstract submission deadline is March 23, 2012./
