In the case where you want to create a bunch of graphics objects that may be transformed (i.e. zoomed and panned) later, SVG is much more efficient. Canvas forces JavaScript to run through the entire drawing stack with each update, whereas SVG rendering allows a single object to be manipulated and only the parts of the drawing that change will be updated (and that all happens in the browser's renderer, not JavaScript so is therefore much faster).

[matplotlib-devel] Should we update sample_data in the old SVN repo?
Hi all, I just added the stinkbug.png file to the sample_data repo so the Image tutorial and other examples using this image could be run by users making cbook.get_sample_data calls. But while it works fine with a reasonably recent MPL, I tested with the system one in Ubuntu 11.10, and it does not find the file. The reason is simply that this version of mpl still had the old SVN sample_data repo URL: baseurl = 'http://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/trunk/sample_data/' So the problem is that any users of 11.10 are now stuck with a 'frozen in time' sample_data repo. We can fix this easily by simply pushing over to sample_data an update with any new files in the github one. Since that repo changes fairly slowly and the changes typically involve just putting new files in and no actual code, it should be fairly easy to do manually. What do folks think? If you agree, I'm happy to push an update now (I'm assuming the SVN repo is still writable, which might not be the case...). Cheers, f -- Learn Windows Azure Live!

I can't think of any problem it would create. (But I don't know whether the repo is writable.) Eric > > Cheers, > > f > -- Learn Windows Azure Live!

Well, I can't seem to push. I don't know if it's my sourceforge credentials, or if the repos are read-only, or what. In case anyone else wants to give it a try, I tarred the svn directory and put it up here: http://fperez.org/tmp/sample_data_svn.tgz I've already done the add steps, so all you should need to do is: wget http://fperez.org/tmp/sample_data_svn.tgz tar xzf sample_data_svn.tgz cd sample_data_svn svn commit -m"Sync SVN repo with contents in current git repo" If one of you wants to try pasting the above four lines into a terminal, let me know if it works for you.

OK, thanks for trying. Next week we can see if John can reopen it for this. I think there's no danger of anyone mistakenly committing any real work there anymore.
