Mike, Good--what's next? You're ready for more fun, I hope. If you are looking for brain-benders, I know of two bugs lurking deep in extension code (one in cntr.c, the other in the Agg quadmesh rendering) that have completely eluded me. There is also a bug in the Agg image rendering that shows up at high magnification. If you are interested in grand strategy, let's discuss what a suitable target might be--maybe some refactoring and consolidation of backend code to reduce duplication, and make optimizations applicable to all (referring to recent work by Allan). A related idea that has been languishing is to consolidate the various image-like functionality, again so as to make maximum use of the different optimizations and options that are now spread among different functions. John probably has better ideas about what to attack. > > Now, Eric, I'm just waiting for you to tell me how this latest batch > reveals another bug on Ubuntu ;) (with all due respect to Ubuntu) So, you use RHEL4 at work and ubuntu at home; has the former actually managed to put together a set of relatively bug-free versions of gui toolkits and other libraries? Or is it a choice between old bugs and newer bugs? Given all the different constantly-changing libraries, compilers, etc. involved in something like mpl, I am sometimes amazed that it works at all--and worried that at any moment it may cease to work.
