I was thinking that you were proposing a "math" namespace for pylab users -- but it sounds like you're proposing a standard set of math names that will be brought in to modules for the matplotlib project itself. Different issue. I don't write enough MPL internal code to have any opinion on that. Does anyone else think this is a good idea? -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
