Ugh, yeah, that wouldn't be desirable. Hopefully someone else can thnk of
something more clever. Perhaps the webagg backend might provide a clue? If
not, I can live without it for the purposes of my book.
As for my next hurdle. There is the well-known limitation with animation
saving that the figure must be of the same size for the duration of the
entire movie (the tight_layout bug). To make my session recorder fairly
robust, it would be good to disable resizing the figure during the
interactive session. I tried turning the canvas's resize_event() into a
no-op, but that didn't work (I suspect figure resizing happens earlier with
the event merely emitted as an afterthought).
Thoughts?

I would guess that that would be very backend dependent and would
involve walking up the widget tree to find the QMainWindow (in qt
speak) and grabbing it's RGBA buffer.

I am *this* close to completing an "interactive session recorder" example
for my book using the animation framework (yeah, you read that right...).
However, since it is based on the usual savefig() action, you don't see the
buttons or the coordinate display in the corner. Is there a way to save
frames of the entire canvas? It doesn't have to use savefig().
Cheers!

We should be a mentoring organization for next summer.
The organization application period is coming up in a few months
(http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2015), and if we
are going to do this we need to have a list of viable projects for a
summer student. I suspect that these will have to have a balance
between importance (to justify doing it) and shiny-ness (to get
students to _want_ to do it).
Thing that comes to my mind immediately
 - work on implementing what ever comes out of
https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/issues/3424
 - The laundry list of work on 3D plotting enhancements

Does anyone on the list know the pass word (or control the recovery
email address) for the matplotlib gmail account? I would like to set
up google analytics on our web site to see a) how much traffic we get
and b) where people are going.
