Is anyone updating the Math Guide for 7.x? The last time I looked at a
published copy, I noticed some formatting problems in some of the tables
that I’d be happy to fix before a new edition is published, if someone
else doesn’t fix them first.

Hmm, the release notes seem to be lacking in this department. Dante has done quite a lot of work on Math and support for MathML. Most of it has been internal improvements & refactoring, though, not user-facing.

I'm not really capable of summarising. I guess Dante himself would be the best person to explain. Something I've written on the QA blog:
https://qa.blog.documentfoundation.org/2021/01/08/qa-dev-report-december-2020/
Dante Doménech worked on support for MathML custom entities and improved fastparser

Dante Doménech made many improvements to Math: he added hexadecimal number and colour support, added command for frac and evaluate, renovated examples and greatly improved colour support (also with MathML)
