I created a source package for 0.99 using the instructions from 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete#Ingredients
I tried building the binary package using pbuilder but it failed (for both the 
current version and the new upstream version)  pbuilder seemed to have trouble 
because it couldn't satisfy dependencies for the 
"pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy" package.
I was able to build the package using dpkg-buildpackage, install it and run the 
tests in examples/tests.

For what it's worth, the main new features are:
- 3D plotting toolkit
- Axis grid toolkit
- Axis spine placement functionality

for details see: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/users/whats_new.html

I would like to see this package included in Karmic and am willing to
help out although i'm probably a novice when it comes to package
management.
