[Edu-sig] WebLab: please have a look!

[Andre Roberge]

A while ago, Yusdi Santoso made an announcement to this list about a
new browser-based interface to matplotlib, called WebLab, intended to
be a free replacement to Matlab.  Since that original announcement,
there have been quite a few improvements made to WebLab; in addition,
WebLab is no longer restricted to run under Windows XP like it was
when the original announcement was made.

I am not all that familiar with matplotlib but, for having tried
briefly WebLab, I am most impressed.  I would encourage anyone
interested in producing high quality graphics using a free Python
based tool, as well as science instructors who have students that need
to produce graphs, to have a look at WebLab.
