XSL Stylesheet for Cross Browser MathML viewing

I am pleased to be able to announce the first public release of a
stylesheet enabling the support of MathML in a variety of browsers.

Further details are available at the URI:

http://www.w3.org/Math/XSL/

The stylesheet allows conforming XHTML+MathML documents to be
rendered, without changing the document, in a range of browsers.

Basically the stylesheet detects the environment in which it is running and
inserts any <object>, <embed> or other browser-specific markup required.
If only presentation MathML rendering is available, it performs a
Content to Presentation transformation before passing the document to
the rendering engine.

This allows the document to be authored in a browser-independent
style.

Comments on the stylesheet are welcomed, and should be sent to the public
MathML list: www-math@xxxxxx

PS for the XSL-list version of this announcement:

If you are not interested in Mathematics
a) why not?
b) You might like to see this as a use of XSL as a dispatching mechanism
   rather than a transformation (It's only really an annotated identity
   transform) 
c) You might like to amuse yourself spotting such well loved features as
   the-language-known-as-xsl-in-ie5
   disable-output-escaping
   escaping to javascript
   ....
