Gee, I wish I was a student at UW! :). I really appreciate the effort various people have put into the plotting framework. The NotImplemented parts have bothered me for a while (as well as some of the framework itself), but I haven't had time to do an overhaul, though I've made some somewhat meager attempts at starting. If someone were to spearhead such a thing, I'd like to be involved. I don't see the time in my future for spearheading such a thing until possibly next April/May at the earliest. Mike's improvements to plot.py (both his cleanup and his patch for options decorators) make such an overhaul much easier. Kudos and a candy bar to him.
