One of my biggest complaints about Peter K's "MathML is a failed web standard" is that most people read that without taking note of "web" in the middle. MathML has been quite successful in publishing and as a computer representation. As far as whether or not MathML is a failed WEB standard, I have a lot more to say about that here: http://bit.ly/1ZLfCF8.

Seeing WEB in a comment thread with extensive references to Knuth is amusing.
Thanks for your response. I totally agree it is not useful trying to code semantic into math markups.
