The Digital Mathematics Library (DML), now called World Digital Mathematics Library\break (WDML), is an initiative which came up with the quite natural idea to make all mathematical publications available in the web. Supported by NSF money a DML Planning Group had been active for more than one year to develop a model and a report how such an enterprise could be organized. The current article gives an enthusiastic description of the state of the art at the end of the activities of the Planning Group. This refers to the content digitally available, running digitisation projects, proposals for common standards and recommendations for future projects, models for integrated access to a distributed DML and ideas how to combine freely accessible content and commercial digital archieves. After the article has been written, further progress with the digitisation of the mathematical literature has been obtained and the next global meeting of the initiative has been arranged as a satelite conference to the European Congress of Mathematicians in June 2004.
