We can swap back over to PyPI. Originally matplotlib was only on sourceforge, until https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/issues/2715.
That was one of those "attempt to change upstream while working with what you have now" moments.
Addressed in f16f216bf6d4f7e33fcebc40be906e5eaa1d7e33#diff-25e5d4a4446ae12a0d6f1162b6160375. Thanks @JasonBoyles!
ipython-notebook-cookbook wants to download matplotlib v1.3.1 from sourceforge.
This is flakey and slow at times.
The 1.3.1 tarball is available from github & PyPI, either of which are theoretically more reliable.
Is there a reason to prefer the sourceforge tarball over other sources?
I can submit a patch if other sources are acceptable.
