This page just covers the highlights -- for the full story, see the
`CHANGELOG <http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/_static/CHANGELOG>`_
+new in matplotlib-1.0
+======================
+
+.. _whats-new-html5:
+
+HTML5/Canvas backend
+---------------------
+
+Simon Ratcliffe and Ludwig Schwardt have released an `HTML5/Canvas
+<http://code.google.com/p/mplh5canvas/>`_ backend for matplotlib. The
+backend is almost feature complete, and they have done a lot of work
+comparing their html5 rendered images with our core renderer Agg. The
+backend features client/server interactive navigation of matplotlib
+figures in an html5 compliant browser.
+
+Sophisticated subplot grid layout
+---------------------------------
+
+Jae-Joon Lee has written :mod:`~matplotlib.gridspec`, a new module for
+doing complex subplot layouts, featuring row and column spans and
+more. See :ref:`gridspec` for a tutorial overview.
+
+.. plot:: users/plotting/examples/demo_gridspec01.py
+
+Easy pythonic subplots
+-----------------------
+
+Fernando Perez got tired of all the boilerplate code needed to create a
+figure and multiple subplots when using the matplotlib API, and wrote
+a :func:`~matplotlib.pyplot.subplots` helper function. Basic usage
+allows you to create the figure and an array of subplots with numpy
+indexing (starts with 0). Eg::
+
+ fig, axarr = plt.subplots(2, 2)
+ axarr[0,0].plot([1,2,3]) # upper, left
+
+See :ref:`pylab_examples-subplots_demo` for several code examples.
+
+Contour fixes and and triplot
+---------------------------------
+
+Ian Thomas has fixed a long-standing bug that has vexed our most
+talented developers for years. :func:`~matplotlib.pyplot.contourf`
+now handles interior masked regions, and the boundaries of line and
+filled contours coincide.
+
+Additionally, he has contributed a new module `matplotlib.tri` and
+helper function :func:`~matplotlib.pyplot.triplot` for creating and
+plotting unstructured triangular grids.
+
+.. plot:: mpl_examples/pylab_examples/triplot_demo.py
+
+multiple calls to show supported
+---------------------------------
+
+A long standing request is to support multiple calls to
+:func:`~matplotlib.pyplot.show`. This has been difficult because it
+is hard to get consistent behavior across operating systems, user
+interface toolkits and versions. Eric Firing has done a lot of work
+on rationalizing show across backends, with the desired behavior to
+make show raise all newly created figures and block execution until
+they are closed. Repeated calls to show should raise newly created
+figures since the last call. Eric has done a lot of testing on the
+user interface toolkits and versions and platforms he has access to,
+but it is not possible to test them all, so please report problems to
+the `mailing list
+<http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=matplotlib-users>`_
+and `bug tracker
+<http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=80706&atid=560720>`_.
+
+
+mplot3d graphs can be embedded in arbitrary axes
+-------------------------------------------------
+
+You can now place an mplot3d graph into an arbitrary axes location,
+supporting mixing of 2D and 3D graphs in the same figure, and/or
+multiple 3D graphs in a single figure, using the "projection" keyword
+argument to add_axes or add_subplot. Thanks Ben Root.
+
+.. plot:: pyplots/whats_new_1_subplot3d.py
+
+tick_params
+------------
+
+Eric Firing wrote tick_params, a convenience method for changing the
+appearance of ticks and tick labels. See pyplot function
+:func:`~matplotlib.pyplot.tick_params` and associated Axes method
+:meth:`~matplotlib.axes.Axes.tick_params`.
+
+Lots of performance and feature enhancements
+---------------------------------------------
+
+
+* Faster magnification of large images, and the ability to zoom in to
+ a single pixel
+
+* Local installs of documentation work better
+
+* Improved "widgets" -- mouse grabbing is supported
+
+* More accurate snapping of lines to pixel boundaries
+
+* More consistent handling of color, particularly the alpha channel,
+ throughout the API
+
+Much improved software carpentry
+---------------------------------
+
+The matplotlib trunk is probably in as good a shape as it has ever
+been, thanks to improved software carpentry. We now have a buildbot
+which runs a suite of nose regression tests on every svn commit,
+auto-generating a set of images and comparing them against a set of
+known-goods, sending emails to developers on failures with a
+pixel-by-pixel image comparison. Releases and release bugfixes happen
+in branches, allowing active new feature development to happen in the
+trunk while keeping the release branches stable. Thanks to Andrew
+Straw, Michael Droettboom and other matplotlib developers for the
+heavy lifting.
+
+Bugfix marathon
+----------------
+
+Eric Firing went on a bug fixing and closing marathon, closing over
+100 bugs on the `bug tracker
+<http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=80706&atid=560720>`_ with
+help from Jae-Joon Lee, Michael Droettboom, Christoph Gohlke and
+Michiel de Hoon.
