   Format: MarkdownItexI put in the observation that an augmented simplicial set is the same as an ordinary simplicial set with a map to a constant simplicial set. Also, there is an isomorphism of categories $sSet_+ \simeq sSet^\mathbf{2}\times_{sSet} Set$, but I didn't put this in yet.

   Format: MarkdownItexregarding degeneracy maps, there isn't one from $X_{-1}$ to $X_0$, and there only one face map the other way. The sentence about 'for each natural number' dealing with the case $n=-1$ for face maps is a bit slippery and requires a bit too much negative thinking that early in the article, IMHO. I like the exposition otherwise, and I can't think how to nicely rewrite it at the moment.

    Format: MarkdownItexMaybe you should add another item to the bug report list Just to say that, from what Richard kept saying, currently the main version of any page is rendered using his modified rendering engine, while all pages in history etc. use the old engine. That should explain why some effect appears here but not there.
