Hi,

Matlab is now shipping with a new default colormap, named "parula" 
[1,2]. It is meant to overcome the many issues of the current default 
"jet". It seems that the RGB values of this new colormap are already 
onnline [3].

So my question is:
* is it worth adding this parula in the Matplotlib colormap collection ? 
(I think it is)
* is there any copyright issue with that ? (I have no idea how 
copyrightable a list of numbers is !)

(I'm not speeking of changing the *default* colormap since this is 
already discussed here https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/issues/875)

best,
Pierre
