Excellent -- I'll give these a test drive shorty. BTW, have you had a
chance to look at this question:
http://www.nabble.com/3d-surface-plot-appears-as-black-surface-td23587006.html
Perhaps you could look and see if there is a bug here and respond to the OP.

Let's just remove it. When the release goes out, I will put a
prominent notice on the website news section pointing to the new
toolkits.

Excellent -- when we have uploaded these, we should edit the scipy
cookbook mplot3d entry to point to these too. Also, if you create an
examples in the examples/mplot3d dir, I'll configure the site docs to
build these examples so they show up in the gallery and examples
pages. Lots of people will find the toolkit this way. While we have
one demo file that makes a lot of plots, and this is fine, I prefer
smaller self contained examples each illustrating one feature: plot3,
bar, scatter, surf, mesh, whatever.
Thanks for all your work on this,
JDH
