[xwiki-dev] Charting macro

[Shawn Lauzon]

Yep Sergiu, that sounds about right. My biggest need is a line graph, for 
which I need two values for each point (x, y), so there might be a couple 
parameters. But the general idea that you're outlining sounds exactly what 
I was thinking. And with the framework that Catalin already has, shouldn't 
be too hard to write. 

I'll work on creating a patch for this and submit it; I am also excited 
about the 1.0 release, and so wouldn't ask you to divert resources to 
something new.
