I think one thing that contributes a lot to the API issues is the
inconsistency between pyplot API and the OO API. There isn't any reason
the APIs need to be so different.
To continue with this example, pyplot.subplot and Figure.add_subplot do
basically the same thing, but they have different nam

general stuff that will cover (we hope) 100% of use cases. However, the
cost is a very verbose interface with lots of knobs. To cope with this
there are higher level function which can deal with 90% of the use cases
and do s

will get an invite, along with Matthew Terry and Matthew Brett if they
can make it to discuss their work with testing and builds.
