Eric, since it looks like you have not reverted these changes, I went
ahead and did so because svn remains broken.  Norbert, thanks for
taking the lead on numpifying some of the modules, but as Eric said,
we plan on keeping the numerix layer for sometime since a lot of
external code depends on it.  Apparently your changes broke the
numerix layer, but the rest of mpl still depended on it, so I had to
revert them.  I had hoped to do an svn diff between HEAD and 3573 (the
last revision before your numerix changes) and manually remove all the
changes in the diff file to just the lib/matplotlib/numerix so the
rest of your and others work would not be lost, and then apply that
diff against 3573.  Unfortunately, because you also changed many of
the numerix imports which would be broken against a working numerix, I
had to simply revert to all the python code to 3573 (src code changes
should be OK)

Also, the style we agreed (in the usual case) to use

  import numpy as npy
  npy.ones(something)

rather than

  from numpy import ones.

This is also a good idea to remind developers to run simple demos and
examples/backend_driver.py after non-trivial commits.  I usually run
examples/simple_demo.py and the examples/backend_driver.py.  .  The
latter I don't always run to completion, but if it runs for a while I
feel OK with a commit

Thanks,
JDH
