Dear Thomas, Finally got some time to reply about the docs. My main point is not about the API docs themselves, although they would need some tuning à la MEP10. Rather, as Sebastian's doubts about pyplot/axes shows, I am considering an issue with the non-API part of the docs, i.e. the user guide,

[matplotlib-devel] logit scale for frequencies

2014-11-03 Thread Fabio Zanini
Dear all, I've been using matplotlib with great satisfaction for a few years, but one feature I've been missing is a "logit" scale. This is essentially a nonlinear scale that is log both towards 0+ and log towards 1-. It is useful when one has frequencies in a population (i.e. floats between 0 and
