Hi,

Hi Sébastien,

Hi,
thanks for these answers.
I agree that apt does not seem much better than xdoc, but it at least
offers table formatting and so on.
So can anyone recommend a good format? Otherwise, I'm quite happy with xhtml.

An option I'm going to look at at work is sphinx [1]. It has become
widely spread in the python community and is based on the restructured
text format.
More importantly (for Commons-Math), it supports formulas, either with dvipng (requires a local installation of LaTeX), or Mathjax (which is
pretty good, and could also be used in xhtml).

Having something compatible with Mathjax would be a tremendous step forward for [math]. I would really love to see this happen! Formulas based on dvipng are really not good. There are always problems of font sizes (for inline or display formulas, for some browsers like mobile devices) and they are not friendly with parsers like search engines or screen readers for visually impaired people.

I can report on my experiments with this format.

I am really interested in reading about this. On a side note, for another project I am involved in, do you know if sphinx is compatible with the chiliproject forge?

best regards,
Luc


Best regards,
Sébastien

I forgot to add that there are apparently maven plugins for Sphinx...
