I stumbled across a basemap demo a couple of days ago and was immediately
enchanted.
I can't get it to install nicely on a Windoze box with matplotlib 0.99.3.
When I try the famous
from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap
directive, I get
In [1]: from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ValueError Traceback (most recent call last)

I tried manually installing many of the prerequisites (which should be
bundled) and also reinstalling MPL. But still no joy.
On my Linux box running 0.99.0, I was able to install basemap and run one of
the example codes. Works quite nicely.
