matplotlib-devel Mailing List for matplotlib

I just noticed all of the image and colorbar colors are wrong in
GTKCairo (on linux). When I tried to test on the pure Cairo backend,
I get
peds-pc311:~/python/projects/matplotlib/examples> python pcolor_demo.py -dCairo Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi Jochen,
Sorry to see you go :-(
Thanks for all the hard work you've put into making the PS backend
compliant. We'll keep hammering away at it. Poke in every once in a
while to make sure we aren't mucking things up.
Again, thanks a lot, and thanks for bowing out officially so I know to
take over rather than just grumbling and pestering!
