Hey Charlie, I totally appreciate the effort you put into making these
releases, particularly on Windows, where I must admit, I have a faint
heart...

But I found a couple issues (neither require a re-release, but just to
be aware of them next time):

1) there are several .pyc files left in the .tar.gz release
2) the setup.cfg file in the release specifies, in the egg_info section,
"tag_svn_revision = 1", which makes any further attempts to do python
setup.py sdist with setuptools result in a package versioned
matplotlib-0.87.5-r0, which isn't right. (Basically, this setup.cfg file
is telling setuptools that this is a development version and it should
tag the svn version. Not being in a subversion tree, it finds the
version as 0.) I made a note a few weeks ago in the DEVNOTES file
(section "making a release") to remove the setup.cfg file, or at least
this section, prior to making a release.

Cheers!
Andrew
