Chart2 is the re-implementation of the charting component of OpenOffice.org. It is integrated in OOo 2.3.
Charts are used for visualizing data sets from e.g. spreadsheets by two and three dimensional diagrams. There are a lot of different two- and three-dimensional chart types you can choose from. This page gathers information about the new chart implementation of OpenOffice.org. It is especially written to help newcomers to the process of developing for the new OOo chart module.
If you would like to participate, if you have comments or questions related to the chart you are welcome on the graphics mailing lists: (users,dev,features,bugs,cvs)@graphics.openoffice.org. See also the side-box with some useful Links.

Open Technical Issues in the New Chart
There still some architectural issues left that have to be solved. This section serves for showing those problems and showing the progress in finding solutions. The issues are now on a separate page.
Why not implement everything in OOo?
This article has been moved to a separate page.
Documentation
The application help introduces an own module "Chart" in the top left drop-down listbox of Help Viewer. Main issue for documentation is http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=60360
