Geometry Center. Since that time several changes in membership have taken
place. In the course of the update to MathML 1.01, in addition to people listed in
the original membership below, corrections were offered by David Carlisle, Don
Gignac, Kostya Serebriany, Ben Hinkle, Sebastian Rahtz, Sam Dooley and others.

<h2><a name="contrib.ack" id="contrib.ack"></a>I.2 Acknowledgments
</h2>
<p>The Working Group benefited from the help of many other
people in developing the specification for MathML 1.0. We
would like to particularly name Barbara Beeton, Chris Hamlin,
John Jenkins, Ira Polans, Arthur Smith, Robby Villegas and Joe
Yurvati for help and information in assembling the character
tables in <a href="chapter6-d.html">Chapter 6 Characters, Entities and Fonts</a>, as well as Peter Flynn,
Russell S.S. O'Connor, Andreas Strotmann, and other
contributors to the <a href="http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-math/">www-math</a>
mailing list for their careful
proofreading and constructive criticisms.
</p>
<p>
As the Math Working Group went on to MathML 2.0, it again was
helped by many from the W3C family of Working Groups with whom
we necessarily had a great deal of interaction. Outside the
W3C, a particularly active relevant front was the interface
with the Unicode Technical Committee (UTC) and the NTSC WG2
dealing with ISO 10646. There the STIX project put together a
proposal for the addition of characters for mathematical
notation to Unicode, and this work was again <span class="diff-chg">spearheaded<a href="appendixj-d.html#d0e56086"><sub class="diff-link">J</sub></a></span>
by
Barbara Beeton of the AMS. The whole problem ended split into
three proposals, two of which were advanced by Murray Sargent
of Microsoft, a Math WG member and member of the UTC. But the
mathematical community should be grateful for essential help
and guidance over a couple of years of refinement of the
proposals to help mathematics provided by Kenneth Whistler of
Sybase, and a UTC and WG2 member, and by Asmus Freytag, also
involved in the UTC and WG2 deliberations, and always a stalwart
and knowledgeable supporter of the needs of scientific notation.
