Things to do before GUI-developers can start their work

Refering to my very first post, I totally disagree! If MathML would be 
supported by Maxima, we could reuse lots of code already developed, like the 
whole XML stuff, most of the display and typesetting stuff, even the 
interface to Maxima (e.g. KProcess) and the multiple document interface 
(template in KDevelop) are there. They only have to be connected together 
meaning a two year developing time should be enough to produce a useable GUI 
with all the things the commercial Macsyma interface was able to do.
