Also, apologies if you did and I do not recall, but posting to the SciPy list might hook you up with more interested people. Be sure to include a clear statement of the problem you are addressing.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Embedding matplotlib in Tkinter Applications
Ok, it's rereleased now under MIT, github.com/friedrichromstedt/diagram_cl . I'm having somewhat trouble accessing my web server at the moment, so please find it on github. The docu on www.friedrichromstedt.org (see github link) is a bit outdated, but only with respect to the double-right click settings dialog.

Alan, Thank you for your comment. I think I will release diagram_cl as my first MIT project :-) Hope that it finds some users then. Also, I consider switching to MIT license completely. In fact, I like it much more, it's shorter, more concise, and you can use my software ... I'm not shure whether someone can release software under GPL incorporating MIT licensed software? Otherwise I would release under dual license.

The licenses are very different: BSD (and MIT) do not impose a viral copyleft. This is why Python is not GPL, nor is NumPy or Matplotlib. People writing code under BSD-like licenses must carefully avoid viral infection from GPL'd code. Second, while John Hunter's views are not identical to mine, he makes a collection of important points about licensing here: http://neuroimaging.scipy.org/site/doc/manual/html/faq/johns_bsd_pitch.html I'm going to treat John's note as enough of an answer to your question unless you want more discussion. Naturally, since you wrote the code, you get to choose the license, and your choice is obviously none of my business. Hopefully that goes without saying, but I'll say it to avoid misunderstanding. > Did you notice that it is not an example but an independent standalone > package?

Since you posted this on Matplotlib, I assumed you wanted people to be able to look at how you did it, not just use it. I am not diminishing the application by saying it looks to be a nice example of how to embded Matplotlib in Tk. If it were BSD-licensed I would probably get around to looking at your code.

[Matplotlib-users] Embedding matplotlib in Tkinter Applications
I would like to know whether the following project of mine: http://www.friedrichromstedt.org/index.php?m=186 is useful or not, because I don't know. I made an attempt to find something like what I tried some time ago, but I failed. Friedrich -- Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
