    @cwg What is this? Where have these numbers come from? We do not test against versions of scipy/matplotlib this old, and both of these versions are older than is in ubuntu 14.04 and debian stable. In #63 (closed) you imply that we should support these two platforms, but nowhere are scipy 0.11 and matplotlib 1.2 mentioned.
