Re: [matplotlib-devel] release strategy and the color revolution

[Benjamin R. <ben...@ou...>]

Do remember that I have a PR to add linestyle cycling, which would greatly
mitigate problems for colorblindness and non-color publications.

I also prefer it for slideshows as projectors at conferences tend to have
crappy colors anyway (was at a radar conference when the projector's red
crapped out while the presenter was building up suspense about the really,
really impressive radar image of a supercell on the next slide)
