Hmm, I'll have to check that out. When I started writing the chart code I
certainly wasn't aware of what I was getting myself into, so reuse would
definitely be favorable to re-inventing the wheel...

As for Alkimia, is there any code yet? I guess what I'm asking is what are
my first steps? If it would be helpful I can write out some requirements
brainstormings wrt to what I've learned so far with regards to
retrieving/storing/serving stock data. Also, if anybody off-hand knows of
any good example library/dbus code to look at that twould be sweet...
otherwise I could always not be lazy and just use Google... :)
