> 2. Project Purpose and Summarization
>
> Please provide detailed, accurate description of your project and what
> SourceForge resources and in which way you plan to use. This description will
> be the basis for the approval or rejection of your project's hosting on

PyX is a python package to create encapsulated PostScript figures. It provides
classes and methods to access basic PostScript functionality at an abstract
level. At the same time the emerging structures are very convenient to produce
all kinds of drawings in a non-interactive way. In combination with the python
language itself the user can just code any complexity of the figure wanted.
Additionally an TeX/LaTeX interface enables one to use the famous high quality
typesetting within the figures.
A major part of PyX on top of the already described basis is the provision of
high level functionality for complex tasks like 2d plots in publication-ready
quality.
The project started in the middle of last year and is developed by Jrg Lehmann
and Andr Wobst. While we plan to use PyX ourself (and already do) we want to
take the opportunity to share our project with others under the GPL. Thus, we
would greatly appreciate sourceforge for the hosting of this project.

PyX is a python package for the creation of encapsulated PostScript figures. It
provides both an abstraction of PostScript and a TeX/LaTeX interface. Complex tasks
like 2d plots in publication-ready quality are built out of these primitives.
> 5. Project Unix Name
>
> In addition to full project name, you will need to choose short, "Unix" name for your project.
>
> The "Unix Name" has several restrictions because it is used in so many places around the site. They are:
>
> * Cannot match the Unix name of any other project
> * Must be between 3 and 15 characters in length
> * Must be in lower case
> * Can only contain characters, numbers, and dashes
> * Must be a valid Unix username
> * Cannot match one of our reserved domains
> * Unix name will never change for this project
>
> Your nix name is important, however, because it will be used for many things, including:
>
> * A web site at unixname.sourceforge.net
> * A CVS Repository root of /cvsroot/unixname at cvs.unixname.sourceforge.net
> * Shell access to unixname.sourceforge.net
> * Search engines throughout the site
