Re: [SciPy-dev] mlabwrap high-level user interface

Hi guys,
I like the interface. We might have to think of a different module name though, because matplotlib has a 'mlab' submodule of the same name, for matlab compatibility functions,
I don't think we need to worry too much about this -- IMO using a plotting package like matplotlib to obtain matlab-like functions (rather than numpy, scipy or whatever) is pretty yucky anyway and people can easily use either an ``import as`` or a a fully qualified name (``matplotlib.mlab`` or ``mlabwrap.mlab``). alex

BTW I cannot get access to mlabwrap via svn. (as described http://www.scipy.org/MlabWrap) Is it a temporary problem ? svn co http://scipy.org/svn/scikits/trunk/mlabwrab/ svn: URL 'http://scipy.org/svn/scikits/trunk/mlabwrap' doesn't exist Nils

Sort of -- the repository is temporarily located on a server of Berkeley university (since we needed some svn server were we had root access when we migrated from CVS), but it should move to <http://scipy.org/svn/scikits/trunk/mlabwrab/> quite soon. I think Jarrod Millman (who set up the server) now also has admin rights to the scipy.org/scikits svn and should transfer the server pretty soon; he's mentioned to me in an email that he's very busy right now, which might cause additional delay -- but either I or Jarrod will write a short note to this list, once the move is accomplished. cheers, 'as
