<h4>Special thanks to those who have made valuable contributions
(roughly in order of contribution by date)</h4>

<ul> 

  <li>Jeremy O'Donoghue wrote the wx backend</li>

  <li>Andrew Straw provided much of the log scaling architecture, the
  fill command, PIL support for imshow, and provided many
  examples</li>

  <li>Charles Twardy provided the impetus code for the legend class
  and has made countless bug reports and suggestions for
  improvement.</li>

  <li>Gary Ruben made many enhancements to errorbar to support x and y
  errorbar plots, and added a number of new marker types to plot.
  </li>

  <li>John Gill wrote the table class and examples</li>

  <li>David Moore wrote the paint backend</li>

  <li>Todd Miller contributed the TkAgg backend and the numerix
  module, which allows matplotlib to work with either numeric or
  numarray.  He also ported image support to the postscript backend,
  with much pain and suffering.</li>

  <li>Paul Barrett overhauled font management to provide an improved,
  free-standing, platform independent font manager with a WC3
  compliant font finder and cache mechanism and ported truetype and
  mathtext to PS</li>

  <li>Perry Greenfield overhauled and modernized the goals and
  priorities page, implemented an imporved colormap framework, and has
  provided many suggestions and a lot of insight to the overall design
  and organization of matplotlib.</li>

  <li>Jared Wahlstrand wrote the SVG backend</li>

  <li>Steve Chaplin is the GTK maintainer and wrote the Cairo and
  GTKCairo backends</li>

  <li>Jim Benson provided the patch to handle vertical mathttext</li>

  <li>Gregory Lielens provided the fltk backend and several patches
  for the frontend, including contributions to toolbar2, and support
  for log ticking with alternate bases and major and minor log
  ticking</li>

  <li>Darren Dale did the work to do mathtext exponential labeling for
  log plots.</li>

  <li>Paul Mcguire provided the pyparsing module on which mathtext
  relies, and made a number of optimizations to the matplotlib
  mathtext grammar.</i>


  <li>Fernando Perez has provided numerous bug reports and patches for
  cleaning up backend imports and expanding pylab functionality, and
  provided matplotlib support in the pylab mode for <a
  href=http://ipython.scipy.org>ipython</a>.  He also provided the <a
  href=matplotlib.pylab.html#-matshow>matshow</a> command.</li>

  <li>Andrew Dalke of Dalke Scientific Software contributed the
  strftime formatting code to handle years earlier than 1900</li>

  <li>Jochen Voss maintains the PS backend and has contributed several
  bugfixes.</li>

  <li>Nadia Dencheva <dencheva@stsci.edu> of <a
  href=http://www.stsci.edu/>STSci</a> provided the contouring code</li>

  <li>Baptiste Carvello provided the key ideas in a patch for proper
  shared axes support that underlies ganged plots and multiscale
  plots<</li>
