matplotlib-devel Mailing List for matplotlib

I'm listening, and I can do the windows builds. I'll run those tests
tonight and get back to the list.

OK, I did the fresh co and build and the checking, and I don't see any 
problems. (There is a deprecation warning in unicode_demo.py--not a 
show-stopper.)

Edgy appears to be offering 0.87.5, which is not quite so bad. I have 
no idea what will happen in Feisty, however.

I'm still learning how to reply-to with my new-fangled gmail. I'm
forwarding this response on to the list....

I'm severely ham-strung at the moment since my build box died and I
haven't resurrected a new one yet. Charlie has been doing the win32
builds and may be able to do them for this release. That's the hard
part. Other than that, the main thing that needs to be done is to get
a fresh svn co and build, run backend_driver and memleak_hawaii and
make sure everything looks OK. If you can do that Eric, and Charlie
can do the win32 build, I'm all for it.
I just googled ubuntu matplotlib and got a page pointing to the old
debian 0.82 version. I know that is the main debian package people
are using but is it also the most recent ubuntu version. If so, just
getting them onto 0.87.7 would be a major advance. I thought ubuntu
was better about keeping up with current releases.

It has been quite a while since 0.87.7, and I note that the ubuntu 
feisty upstream version freeze date is Feb. 8. Is it time for a new mpl 
release? If it were done within the next few days, would it get into 
feisty? I acknowledge that I can offer no help with the release 
process, and I don't know what it takes to get a release into 
ubuntu--presumably the debian maintainer has to get it into debian 
first--but I thought I would raise the question anyway.
