--- Comment #8 from Peter Krautzberger <peter.krautzber...@mathjax.org> ---
@Richard, the GSoC project for a math-editor component is coming along nicely.
The approach is along the lines of the wyiswhat editor
http://oerpub.github.io/Aloha-Editor/. The OERpub folks have done some testing
(with regular school teachers) see
http://kefletcher.blogspot.com/2013/05/testing-editor-designs.html. 

@Martin I think texvc's restricted TeX fits very well within the concept of
Wikitext and texvc has (unfortunatly) proven to be "stable, secure and long
term supported". Of course I'm biased, but I think MathJax solves the issues
you describe (well except the ominous "along with all the JS issues" -- not
sure what you're referring to). If all you're after is MathML and SVG output,
then the MathJax-driven VE plugin could easily produce those as well. 

This is getting off topic, but I would add: we need more rather than less
client-side rendering of scientific content. Server side rendering is
inherently static, in fact, MathML (which is really just the math equivalent of
text) feels a lot like HTML 1 at this point -- barely acceptable, static
rendering in the browser. E.g., mathapedia and mathbox show what the future of
math on the web might be.
