This library does not contain any files from the matplotlib project, nor
does it make any changes to it. On the other hand, the code contained herein
is perfectly useless without a separate installation of matplotlib.
I don't know enough about US copyright law to decide whether this implies
that this library "uses" or is "based on" matplotlib.
In any case, matplotlib comes with the following license:

License agreement for matplotlib 1.4.3

7. Nothing in this License Agreement shall be deemed to create any relationship of
   agency, partnership, or joint venture between MDT and Licensee. This License
