Paul Kienzle expressed interest at the mpl sprint in working on an
html5 canvas backend for mpl.  When we were taking GSOC applications
earlier this year, Seo did a partial implementation of an html5 canvas
which outputs javascript.  I forwarding his email here with
instructions on how to check this out in case someone wants to pick
this up and run with it


  532  hg clone http://bitbucket.org/sanxiyn/matplotlib-canvas/
  533  cd matplotlib-canvas/
  536  python simple_plot.py -dmodule://backend_canvas

This creates a file test.js

No need for a special statement -- I'll have this email on file where
you gave us permission, we'll just incorporate it under the matplotlib
license.  Thanks a lot.
