I created a dir in CVS "license" which contains
 LICENSE - the matplotlib license
 LICENSE_PAINT - not really required anymore since font.cpp is no
 longer used
 LICENSE_PIL - you can refer to this in the appropriate tkagg src
 files
I also made a committed of couple of minor changes earlier to the
tkagg src that Andrew suggested to me that enable it to build cleanly
on OS X. With the current CVS setup.py and setupext.py, I can build
all the backends on linux, win32 and darwin, which is *a good thing*
:-).

OK. I added this to setupext.py. Thanks for the suggestion.

This was news to me, but Perry confirmed it.

Hi matplotlib developers,
John has rightly directed me to the developers list with the following 
email. So now, after subscribing, I have a couple of suggestions for 
the developer of the TkAgg backend. (John Miller?)
