I'll comment that the new site looks absolutely awesome. I've turned quite a few heads around here when I show people the new site and docs, especially the gallery. Great work guys!
One question, how is the list of "plotting commands" on the main page generated? Is it just the pyplot API? Right now I know at the very least it does not list "barbs" as a plotting command.
