Re: [matplotlib-devel] Release Candidate

[Michael D. <md...@st...>]

I'd certainly like to see that work continue, but I don't know if it's 
worth holding up the release candidate for.  We probably won't get it 
out today given the other critical things yet to go in -- but once the 
release candidate is cut, I'd prefer to be really conservative about 
what changes go in before the final release.  We can continue your great 
PEP8 work on master (after the 1.2.x maintenance branch is created), of 
course.
