[xwiki-users] wiki to latex

Hello,

I would be looking forward for advice to plug such a converter (which  
architecture, which classes etc).
I am mostly interested into the second part... math-in-xwiki although  
wiki-to-latex-and-to-pdf is a nice direction to take in any case.

Within intergeo we intend to enrich Curriki with MathML or TeX-markup  
and content-oriented markup. So there is some overlap and most  
probably our results might converge into a math extension for xwiki.

Please do note that there are dozens of latex-like syntaxes and that  
the non-like-ness is often considered a problem. I would be tending  
to offer a full tex (based on TeX) at least as one possibility.

HotEqn, which is the basis of the JSP Wiki Math Plugin, seems fairly  
nice and somewhat complete but I couldn't find its license. Could  
you ? I saw posts that say that it is GPL... but I could not verify it.

paul
