Now that I am awake again, I think it will only be a few more hours until I get the release done. > Earlier this week I had a bit more of a look at the replot issue and I think that in reality the current behaviour is fine for now, but can be sorted for next release. Everything works providing plreplot is called before pladv. So I don't intend to do anything further there right now. Further wxwidgets changes are obviously post-release material now, but it does bother me that the wxwidgets device has not yet been adjusted for Jim's plbuf change while it was necessary to change every other interactive device at that time. So can you at least do that adjustment now on a topic branch, and let me know whether it solves the issue that was concerning you and/or the background color issue (black rather than white) for the first page of example 16? > I'm about half way through the documentation changes. I can commit progress so far in the next hour or so if you think that is worth doing. Thanks for that offer, but I think it is better to finish up your wxwidgets documentation effort completely on a private topic branch and wait to push it until after this release. Note, I have some urgent post-release plans of my own concerning wxwidgets (moving to the POSIX unnamed semaphore method of IPC). If that idea works as I expect (i.e., solves the remaining Linux inefficiency issues for our standard examples where relatively large amounts of data are transferred with IPC), then I would be keen to create a bug-fix release just for that change as well as any other wxwidgets development you have finished by then including the wxwidgets adjustment for the plbuf change and wxwidgets documentation effort mentioned above.
