Hi Sebastian, Hi list, I'm not the one to decide this, but I think it is worth to try to remove matplotlib.mlab routines, if their numpy counterparts provide the same functionality or do I miss anything? After doing this one additionally could clean up the imports in pylab in order to have only one call "from matplotlib.mlab import" instead of 3.
