Hi yt-dev ! I wrote a small YTEP to propose that yt’s native colormaps be isolated into a lightweight independent package. See the motivation therein https://github.com/yt-project/ytep/pull/20 Although the priority for doing this is pretty low, I do think some form of change is required in this area, following the upstream change of behaviour introduced in matplotlib 3.4 Considering the task itself is also reasonably small and straightforward, I assume it is reasonable to submit it now so it may be considered for yt 4.0 (plus, I couldn’t resist submitting a 40th YTEP on Matt’s 40th birthday). A minimal goal here would be to improve our documentation to showcase the 7 (6 ?) original cmaps from the yt community. Namely: - algae - arbre - dusk - kamae - kelp - octarine - (spectral) -> this one seems to be currently broken actually, or was it just renamed ? See https://github.com/yt-project/yt/issues/3165#issuecomment-822241839 If we agree to bake a separate package out of them, I would also like to give credit to their respective creators. I know that Nathan came up with “arbre”, but I don’t know who created the other 6 (5). Please share your knowledge, I’m interested in knowing this whatever the fate of this YTEP :) Cheers Clément

I feel obligated to suggest we call it YTEP-0x28 ;-)

I have gone back and forth on this and I think maybe it's OK if we do have this as a separate package, as long as it's a hard-ish dep for yt. So sure, let's do it! algae was Britton arbre was Nathan dusk was Cameron kamae was Tune Kamae octarine was me I'll look up the others and put them into the YTEP. :)

I like the idea, plus it increases the odds of getting in on the next Mars Helicopter github badge... On Wed, Apr 21, 2021 at 3:56 AM Clément Robert via yt-dev <yt-dev@python.org> wrote:

Hi folks, I think we should go ahead and merge this YTEP. It looks like it's been well-reviewed and well-received -- any objections? On Wed, Apr 21, 2021 at 8:39 AM Michael Zingale <michael.zingale@stonybrook.edu> wrote:
