+      <h3>Abstract</h3>
+      
+      <p>The World Wide Web is already the largest resource of mathematical
+     knowledge, and its importance will be exponentiated by emerging display
+     technologies like <a target="_top" href="http://www.w3.org/Math">MathML</a>.
+     However, almost all mathematical documents
+     available on the Web are marked up only for presentation, severely
+     crippling the potentialities for automation, interoperability,
+     sophisticated searching mechanisms, intelligent applications,
+     transformation and processing. The goal of the project is to overcome
+     these limitations, passing form a machine-readable to a
+     machine-understandable representation of the information, and developing
+     the technological infrastructure for its exploitation. MoWGLI builds on
+     previous ``standards'' for the management and publishing of mathematical
+     documents (<a target="_top" href="http://www.w3.org/Math">MathML</a>,
+     <a target="_top" href="http://www.openmath.org">OpenMath</a>,
+     <a target="_top" href="http://www.mathweb.org/omdoc/index.html">OMDoc</a>),
+     integrating them with different
+     <a target="_top" href="http://www.w3.org/XML/">XML</a> technologies
+     (<a target="_top" href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt">XSLT</a>,
+     <a target="_top" href="http://www.w3.org/RDF/">RDF</a>, etc).</p>
