Hi,

Here's a couple of examples of additions and modifications we have made
over the last year to jCharts.

Basically we did the following:

3d stacked bar
Angled x-axis labels
Dual y-axis (reworked the previously submitted patch)
Over and under bars (the change in bar and line color was done with
existing post event renderers, although we had to add that support into
a few existing charts)

There's a few hideous hacks in there as well (the no fill symbols on the
lines for example)

Also did a rework on the pie labelling as well so pie labels were lined
up.

And possibly some other things that have slipped my mine. The charts
have been in production for about six months now, getting a good work
out with a fairly large set of datasets.

I think what I'll do is run some CVS diffs on the current 1.0 CVS tree
and then submit them to the patches directory. Then if there is time and
Nathaniel is cool about it I can commit to the 1.0 tree.
