I ignored this note for several days before curiosity got the better of me.
Thanks, William, for the pointer; extremely interesting. 

The link leads to a page where two items are provided for free. The first is
a quite readable book, which praises TeX and LaTeX but argues that
the enormous advances of computing power since 1970 make possible
a new paradigm for software to write documents with
mathematical content.

The second free item is a program, MadHat, which takes a stab at
implementing that new paradigm.

Working with TeX and LaTeX has been a great joy for all of us, in the past 
and in the future. It is not treason to also admire new typesetting ideas!
