Ok, so here they are:

- what's the difference between examples/ and lib/mpl_examples/ dirs?
diff says they are identical, but maybe there's a reason there are 2
copies of them. If not, maybe you can remove one, so to reduce
confusion :)
- the tarball has grown a lot in size, ~3 times, but in the changelog
there's no mention of the reason of this growth (baseline images for
testing)
- the doc generation stops at thumbnails regen, it seems 'thumbnails'
dict is empty and so it stucks there.

If you want me to do any tests, just ask me.
