There's been a good bit of work on MathML since then to keep it
working after the switch to cairo and the reflow branch landing
(mostly by Karl Tomlinson, I think).  I think this means your
message's subject is an overstatement.

However, I don't think there's been much, if any, new feature work
on MathML, although I might be missing something.
