I am hoping that, someday, I can use MathML on a clean Firefox without 
having to go install extra fonts. Is anyone on the lookout for a set of 
fonts with a Moz-compatible license so that either the fonts can be 
included in FF, distributed automatically with FF, or the use of them 
can be made automatic somehow? (I know ways this can be done, but the 
specifics are not the question here.)

I had to hunt a bit, but I found this license on the web site.

http://www.stixfonts.org/user_license.html

(The URL is simpler to type in than to navigate to....)

Is this license Moz-compatible? Do others want to see the MathML 
included in more intuitive way?

FYI, I am coming at this as a Mac user. Forgive me if I am not aware of 
progress or issues on other platforms.

thanx - ray
