News about new release?

Hi!
some days ago there was a thread about new matplotlib release, but it
seems there is some problem about windows binary pacakges preparation.

Is this situation evolved a bit? Would it be considerable to do a
source-only release (there are a lot of changes in the svn that our
users would like to see), and then work on binary packages?

Cheers,

Yes, we had problems with both the OSX and win32 builds, which we have not resolved yet unfortunately. The problem with a “source only” release is that on the sf download site, users will be directed to the latest release, and there will be no binaries available there. I suppose we could reupload the old binaries there, but I would prefer to et these issues resolved. I have had a crazy few weeks (first vacation, then my mom broke both her arms on vavation with me requiring surgery on both sides, and I’ve been spending time with her helping her recover), and I am just starting to get back into normal life here (meaning I’m behind on non-mpl things as well)

Ah, I see.
