Dear all,

I am a long-time user of PyX, and am very happy with the quality of the 
figures, and with the way I need to code them.

However, our system administrators question the usefulness of maintaining pyx 
in their python installation, because the latest release is over 2 years old.
I am also starting to notice some deprecation errors that arise when using PyX 
in python 2.6.4

For instance: 

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/6.0.0/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pyx/text.py:888:
 DeprecationWarning: os.popen4 is deprecated.  Use the subprocess module.
 self.texinput, self.texoutput = os.popen4("%s%s %s" % (self.mode, ipcflag, 
self.texfilename), "t", 0)

I was wondering: is PyX being abandoned ? Is there a new python package that is 
way better ?

Best,

Giovanni
