[matplotlib-devel] ANN: SciPy 2009 early registration extended to July 17th
The early registration deadline for SciPy 2009 has been extended for one week to July 17, 2009. Please register ( http://conference.scipy.org/to_register ) by this date to take advantage of the reduced early registration rate. About the conference SciPy 2009, the 8th Python in Science conference, will be held from August 18-23, 2009 at Caltech in Pasadena, CA, USA. The conference starts with two days of tutorials to the scientific Python tools. There will be two tracks, one for introduction of the basic tools to beginners, and one for more advanced tools. The tutorials will be followed by two days of talks. Both days of talks will begin with a keynote address. The first day’s keynote will be given by Peter Norvig, the Director of Research at Google; while, the second keynote will be delivered by Jon Guyer, a Materials Scientist in the Thermodynamics and Kinetics Group at NIST. The program committee will select the remaining talks from submissions to our call for papers. All selected talks will be included in our conference proceedings edited by the program committee. After the talks each day we will provide several rooms for impromptu birds of a feather discussions. Finally, the last two days of the conference will be used for a number of coding sprints on the major software projects in our community. For the 8th consecutive year, the conference will bring together the developers and users of the open source software stack for scientific computing with Python. Attendees have the opportunity to review the available tools and how they apply to specific problems. By providing a forum for developers to share their Python expertise with the wider commercial, academic, and research communities, this conference fosters collaboration and facilitates the sharing of software components, techniques, and a vision for high level language use in scientific computing. For further information, please visit the conference homepage: http://conference.scipy.org.

[matplotlib-devel] Bug: Original GDK event not set
Hi, I've just wanted to notify you about a small annoyance: FigureCanvasGTK does not set the guiEvent attribute of the generated events to the original GDK event but leaves it to None. This is trivial to fix by just adding 'event' to the relevant calls to the event handlers of FigureCanvasBase. Please fix it, my code depends on it :) Henning -- Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge This is your chance to win up to $100,000 in prizes!

It seems to work for me in all the configurations I can think of (and does raises the error when 2.6 is imported instead of 2.8.). I could be forgetting configurations, as the combinatory is high.

Can you do an 'import wxversion; print wxversion.__file__', so that we understand better why you are getting these warnings.

I don't normally use wx and I am not willing to fiddle with multiple versions of it, so I am working almost blind on this.

I use wx a lot, and with MPL embedded in other programs, so I am a good test bed, and will hopefully catch major problems. However, I of course cover only the configurations I have installed on the various boxes I work on. One of the really nice things with MPL, is that there is a significant user base working from SVN, and thus catching problems early.
