Oh just a sec - I think the BIRT people started punting their widgets 
out as a separate eclipse project - perhaps charting is one such component?

BIRT is really not that bad - it was three years ago when we started 
uDig - but now it is a fairly slick environment. As is usual for eclipse 
projects it suffers a bit from a not invented here syndrome - but even 
ESRI has some plugins for it now.
