A longer and more accurate title would be "Compilable Lightweight Markup Language for Mathematics" [0]. Using Markdown instead is like saying "Uber for X".

This project is a good initiative. But I was also expecting Markdown to make a cameo appearance somewhere. "Compilable Markup for Linear Algebra" would be pretty clear to me.

Ok, we've changed to that title above. Thanks! (Submitted title was "Compilable Markdown for Linear Algebra")

    Ok, we've narrowed it back to that.
