Today is the scheduled day for release candidate 1.2rc1. We seem to be in really good shape. Thanks to everyone that has been working so hard to squash bugs, particularly ones that turned out to be bottomless rabbit holes.
We have a few outstanding issues, which I'll categorize below: Critical things that need just a little more work: #1223 dpi= for bitmaps not handled correctly #1209 Pass linewidth to Mac context properly #786 savefig() renders paths and text differently than show() #113 dpi= doesn't seem to have any effect with MacOS X backend #1208 FAIL: matplotlib.tests.test_text.test_contains.test release_critical #1176 Reverted a previous change to artist transform setting. Fixes legend bug. Non-critical features that are near completion -- just needing some confirmation or testing: #847 Add stacked kwarg to hist and implement stacked hists for step histtype #751 Building on osx with python 3.2 OSX Problems requiring a fix in another project: #1126 Qt4 save dialog not functional on CentOS-5 Things that are probably too big to fix now, but deserve warnings in the release notes: #854 Bug in Axes.relim when the first line is y_isdata=False and possible fix #740 plt.pcolormesh and shape mismatch #162 twinx and plot_date confirmed Reminders for the release manager: #1207 Add contributor and git stats to documentation #1070 Use github for downloads I will write prose for the "too big to fix now" stuff, and I trust the other close things will get done by their respective authors. Then we're very close to getting a release candidate out. Congratulations to everyone for a job well done!
