I would really like to see this follow the standard deploy scheme: implement it in beta labs; then enable it for mediawiki.org and test2wiki; then enable it on production cluster nodes. -Chris

Hi,
during the last year the math extension achieved a goal defined back in 2003. Support of MathML. In addition there is SVG support for MathML disabled browsers. (See http://arxiv.org/abs/1404.6179 for the details) I would like to give Wikipedia users a chance to test this new long awaited feature. Therefore we would need a mathoid instance that is accessible from the production cluster. Greg Grossmeier already created the required table in the database. (Sorry for the "friction" connected with this process) Currently the MathJax team is working on a phantom.js less method to render texvc to mathml and svg. Some days ago I have tested that it, and it works quite well. I would appreciate a discussion with ops that to figure out how this can be can go to production. The original idea was to use jenkins to build the mathoid debian package. Even though the debian package builds without any issues in the launchpad ppa repo jenkins can not build the package. If there is a reference project that uses jenkins to build debian packages that go to production this would really help to figure out what is different for mathoid and why the package building does not work even though it works on launchpad.
