Looks great but there are too many errors: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fmatplotlib.sourceforge.net%2F&charset=(detect+automatically)&doctype=Inline&group=0
I'm not a geek and I do not care about w3c small warnings but it would be so nice to have a xhtml compliant website (as close as possible) From an "artistic" point of view, I would put more emphasis on the screenshot (pylab purpose is to produce *very* nice images...) xavier > We've been working behind the scenes on a new documentation system for > matplotlib, which integrates the web site, API documentation and PDF > guide into a single source of sphinx/rest documents which are easier > to maintain and extend, hopefully leading to better and more > up-to-date docs. > > We went live with the new site yesterday: > > http://matplotlib.sf.net > > so check it out and let us know if something is broken or missing.
