Short version:
I think this is a good idea.
Long version:
I think a 'Who uses matplotlib?' section in the website would provide
good solid academic backing, too. I know the Met Office
(PHIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) and some of the guys in the PECOS group at ICES
use it.
Actual papers is great, but probably rather drab? I think if we want
to show it off, we should include sample images from citations, rather
than just citations. After all, how many people are going to chase a
citation to see sample output when we have a gallery section? Better
still would be to have an 'academic gallery' section. Perhaps this
could be part of the gallery re-work someone was going to do (was it
Tony? I forget).
I don't know. I think the idea is good, but I think there needs to be
some thought and consensus regarding the *best* way to get people to
*visually* judge matplotlib's capabilities in the academic realm.
This is just my two.
