[BlindMath] Question About Backtranslation of Nemeth Math

[Joseph C. Lininger]

Good afternoon,
I can't speak as to how many people would find your project useful. I 
went to using LaTeX for my math years ago and stopped using Nemeth 
extensively at that point. However, I wanted to let you know I am a 
professional Computer Scientist and I might be willing to take on your 
project on an "as I have time" bases. I also run servers (this email is 
coming from a personal server), so I may be able to provide 
infrastructure for distribution and such. Are you wanting to open source 
this, sell it, or some other arrangement?
