I pulled the source from Calligra (which is still the KDChart stuff) but newer 
than ours (except we have a fix that they don't - so what).

I am all for using something generic and stable among all the finance apps. 
What are you using in Skrooge? Are you happy with it?  On the KMyMoney list I 
pointed to http://www.jqplot.com/ which looks like a nice alternative (but I 
have not tried it).
