Here's a summary of my plan:

1) Create a tag in tags/v0_91_2 of the exact revision Charlie released 
as 0.91.2.  This is useful to diff against.

2) Create a branch in branches/v0_91_maint that will be used exclusively 
for bugfixes to 0.91.x, and be the source of any future 0.91.x releases.

3) Merge branches/transforms into trunk/matplotlib

Putting the most recent API_CHANGES and CHANGELOG from the transforms 
branch on the web is a good idea -- however, it should be clear that it 
applies only to SVN versions, and not the 0.91.2 release.  (It's 
reasonably self-evident to me, but maybe not to everyone).

As for svn instructions (applicable after the above changes):

====

To check out the trunk with the latest transforms refactoring:

   svn co 
https://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/trunk/matplotlib 
matplotlib

If you already have a working copy of the trunk, your next "svn up" will 
include the latest transforms refactoring.

To check out the maintenance branch, in order to commit bugfixes to 0.91.x:

   svn co 
https://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/branches/v0_91_maint 
matplotlib_0_91_maint

Any applicable bugfixes on the 0.91.x should be merged into the trunk so 
they are fixed there as well.  I will provide further instructions about 
this (using svnmerge.py) once I have everything in place.

Cheers,
Mike
