   Such software is nice, but it should NOT be used in for posting mathematics   
   in Usenet, as we (I think all of us by now) have found out through a recent   
   discussion.   
      
   Newer Unicode versions were designed specifically with advanced mathematics   
   in *plain* text *without* having to *draw* it in mind, and Network News has   
   been supporting it through MIME since 2009 (RFC 5536); operating systems   
   have begun supporting it even earlier.  (So user agents which still do not   
   support Unicode are non-conforming and thus *broken*.)
