An issue might be how widely we want to make what we publish on the  
web readable. For instance, I believe that publishing in MathML  
requires something special from the reader (Fonts?) which, If the  
reader is a mathematician, may be a small price for her/him to pay  
but which, in other cases, mine for instance, would tend to be a  
deterrent.
