Re: [Python-markdown-discuss] Shipping mathjax extension by default?

[Waylan L. <wa...@gm...>]

Dmitry,

I think this is something that belongs as a third party extension. If
it is not already, I would suggest listing it on the wiki [1] along
with a few other math extensions.

Why? Well, for one, I don't have a need for such an extension.
Therefore, I am not in a good position to determine which of the
existing extensions would be a good choice. Also, I am not interested
in maintaining it - that should be left to someone who uses and
understands the needs of its users. Finally, I'm trying to avoid
feature creep.
