Yes, I had already read what you think about the conversion between
Maxima/MathML. I know your not really enthusiastic about such a
conversion and I agree it will anyway be limited, but I personally think
It could be interesting for a lot of people.
For the moment I can't get the packages working, so I would simply like
to have some explanations in order to use them...
