[matplotlib-devel] SciPy John Hunter Excellence in Plotting Contest on matplotlib website ?

[Nelle V. <nel...@gm...>]

Hello,

At Scipy, we briefly discussed the possibility of having the nicest plots
of the  John Hunter Excellence in Plotting Contest on matplotlib's website,
with the code available.
I personnally would love to be able to see those plots again, and the code
used to generate them. It would also be a great way to advertise the use of
matplotlib for high standard plotting.

I would love to work on this. I was thinking that the easiest would
probably to do a dedicated website, where we could easily upload the code,
the data and the images in high resolution. It would also allow us to have
a more modern looking website, more "commercial" than the matplotlib one.
Also, we (matplotlib) do not hold the copyrights but I think scipy or
numfocus does. Hence, doing this in the name of scipy (or numfocus) would
avoid some legal issues.
We could then be able to link to this website.

What do you think?
(We should also include the organizers of the contest in this discussion,
but I don't really know how to contact them.)

Cheers,
N
