Sandro -- do you distribute something like a matplotlib-devel, so that
people who want to compile mpl, and build the docs, could do so
themselves with a simple

  > apt-get install python-matplotlib-devel
  > cd ~/path/to/mpl/docs
  > python make.py html latex

That would be nice, because it would make it easier for users and
developers to contribute to the docs and test their changes.  Right
now there is something of a barrier to entry for people who want to
contribute to the docs.
