Sorry I missed the original message. I don't really care what it's set to as long as I can point the browser to: http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/libs/math/doc/equations/airy.svg and see the image, not the XML.
Well, please take a look at the conversion result at https://github.com/boostorg/math/blob/master/doc/equations/airy.svg
It seems that github delivers the source. You may want to open an extra thread for this,
Better is to ask github to show you it raw e.g. https://raw.github.com/boostorg/math/master/doc/equations/airy.svg.
Note that github always serves everything as text/plain irrespective. This is apparently for security. Nothing we can do can change that behavior. In other words, you cannot use github as a content server, except as plain text.
... except for github pages, which are designed for exactly this. http://pages.github.com -- Dave Abrahams
