2012-08-17 Thread Michael Droettboom
Working with the documentation this past week has me a little frustrated with the state of it. Enough to write a MEP. https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/wiki/Mep10 In particular, it would be nice to compile a list of concerns about the docstrings and documentation layout so that we can

I was planning to just create my own branch to start putting code in, but would it be better for an admin to create a branch off of master in the main matplotlib repo (say MEP9)? Then whoever wants to help out with MEP9 can branch from that and issue pull requests against it? On Fri, Aug 17, 2012

OK - I'll start the ball rolling... One feature that would be nice to have is positioning options that are not pixel based. See the annotate function for some possibilities: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/pyplot_api.html#matplotlib.pyplot.annotate I'm not sure if all of these opti
