Hey Reiner, I just did an svn up and noticed the new examples for mplot3d -- thanks for adding these. May I suggest you rename them? Having file names like contour, when mpl has a module contour, can lead to subtle import bugs. We try and avoid these by doing fully qualified imports inside mpl like 'import matplotlib.contour as contour' but to keep things clear and simple I like to post fix '_demo' or something like that on examples when the same is potentially ambiguous. Some something like contour3d_demo.py, scatter3d_demo.py, etc, would be preferable to me to clearly disambiguate the modules and examples, with judicious use of 3d to make it clear what the examples are.
