Notes from meeting with mdboom, tacaswell and efiring
- make containers work better
- visitor pattern
- json/object model needs a research project to see if/how it would work (long term)
- contingent on not placing any new constraint
- more often, just tag
- set up upload from travis -> binstar on master
- nightly builds?
- sort out how to get windows nightly
- move to conda on travis
- make sure we cover most of old numpy versions
- cilcky-clicky gui
- not a priority
- maintain leadership position
- get auto-updating all api calls
- via decorators that keep a flag on canvas
- either put update checking logic in os hook or in decorator on each method/function
- make use of existing property call back system
- this needs a bit of TLC
internal API redesign (insert bohek object model in the middle of our rendering stack? the ‘controller’ idea)
- see figure serialization
- on hold for now
- can we get it to save the figure to do automated tests?
- make default ‘show off’ function
- work with mailing list to develop this as part of new default discussion
- re-implement color cycle as list of dicts
- make sure that all rcparams happen at object creation time not at draw time.
- rationalize and minimize the rcparams/style complex
- ship more fonts
- web-fonts?
- ask Dora about SEO
- don’t want google to be finding mpl.org/dev
- separate pages via autosummary for pyplot (and axes?)
- do something about the auto-generated kwarg table
- conversion to numpydoc is breaking these
- fix documentation documentation to not refer to ACCEPTS and refer to numpydoc
- expand glossary? Low priority.
- {tri}contour{f} documentation match each other
- clean up issues
- turn on waffle.io
- add diverging and sequential default color maps
- ‘div’ and ‘seq’ are special color map names,
- add category meta-data to colormap object
- make sure color map discussion gets folded into choosing colormap docs
- adopt seaborn.show_palette into core
- add easy make-your-own color map tools (convince function)
- maybe adopt from seaborn
- add convenience functions for accessing color brewer/general color patterns
- don’t care about history on documentation repo
- only keep tips of minor releases
- add robots.txt to dev folder
- auto-build docs go to mpl.org/dev
- maybe host in independent repo
- deprecate MATLAB style input?
- remove BrokenBarHCollection
- move logic to axes methed
- this needs a major documentation / functionality overhaul
- why is so much heavy looking code hidden in testing.jpl_units and the examples?-
