These are some texts that Dijksta wrote on mathematical notation. I
believe that you'll find them interesting.
1) "The notational conventions I adopted, and why" (2000)
http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/EWD/ewd13xx/EWD1300.PDF
2) "An unfortunate use of symbols" (1995)
http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/EWD/ewd12xx/EWD1206.PDF
3) "On notation" (1986)
[an older version of the above]

4) "On naming" (1986)
