My system wide matplotlib is 0.91.2-2. I tried to install the one from
svn, but it requires numpy 1.1, which is not yet in Debian. So if it
is not possible to generate the docs without numpy 1.1, I'll wait
until it gets into Debian.
Thanks,
Ondrej
Yes, the docs project is specifically for the 0.98 svn trunk, which
requires numpy 1.1
I can post some build snapshots on the web ocassionally if people are
interested.

Yes, I am very interested, especially I wanted to see Michael's CSS
styles. If you could post it on the web somewhere, it'd be awesome.
In the meantime, I am trying to package numpy 1.1 for Debian, but when
I installed it and did "import numpy", I got:
ImportError: No module named ma
So now I am going to figure out what's wrong. Anyway, that's why I
prefer proven software in Debian, so that I don't have to fix such
problems to see the docs. 
I need to fix the problem at some point
though anyway, so I'll do it now.

Make sure you rm -rf the numpy* install dirs. I think people have
seen similar problems trying to install over old numpys (ditto for mpl
0.98)
I posted a snapshot of the docs at:

The peculiar point is that it seems to work normally, but not when I
create the deb package, so it's probably Debian specific. I'll ask on
the numpy list if I won't figure it out myself.

Thanks, looks good. Very nice docs.

WOW. I love the way sphinx docs look. But more importantly, great work you guys on improving the documentation. As long as I've been using matplotlib (2 1/2 years now), it's been a very powerful and full-featured toolkit, but the problem was knowing where to find out how to make it do what you want (or more often even knowing that such a feature existed). The examples were (and still are) a good place to look, but what you guys have put together here is asthetic and very useful, and it puts a nice public face on all the hard work you've done.
My hat off to you. Keep it up.

Indeed, that's the problem of many python projects (in my case sympy
...) that it's difficult to find out what it can do. But
once we switched to sphinx, I am much more motivated to write more
docs, as it looks good.
