[Using Sakai] Math Science Equation Editing Options with FCK editor

[Eixarch Ferrer, Ramon]

Hi John,

This is Ramon Eixarch from the WIRIS team. WIRIS is now a good solution for Sakai users based on images and MathML. 

In a few months we will have LaTeX support and also more options beyond images to represent you math equations. Keep tuned. If you are interested you can join our newsletter at http://www.wiris.com/user/register 

Cordialment, Cordialmente, Best regards,

Ramon Eixarch
