Hi John,
Should I dare to ask about UEB maths?

From the start liblouis and liblouisutdml have been designed to be able to
handle science, technology, engineering an mathematical materials.
There are semantic-action files and liblouis tables for translating MathML into
various mathematical codes, such as Nemeth, u,maths and Marburg math. Now
liblouisutdml is adding the capabiloity to produce tactile graphs and other
images. The math codes do need refining. Native users of them might wish to
take a look. Tactile graphics are still under development.
Translating MathML to a particular Braille mathematics code is done in two
steps. First a semantic-action file is used to produce an inermediate text,
which may contain any characters. Then liblouis tables are used to produce the
final form in characters that will be mapped to the correct dot patterns.
