Integrating a really good graph lib into GT products
I consider this information very valuable as I've searched for a long time a Perl library like this. It's a graph library very easy to implement and with tons of interesting features that renders beautiful charts with lots of options (shadow, transparency, etc.).
I have downloaded it and read the documentation... It's very easy to implement and there are various prebuilt Perl scripts and example code.

I would like to have this implemented into GT products (GLinks, GForum and possibly GCommunity) for generating charts of values that are presented as plain text (imagine links ranking in GLinks with a 3D transparent pie chart and polls in Gforum with such an output). There are endless possibilities with such a powerful library and I'm sure that if GT takes my idea seriously their products will have a great advantage over competition, gaining in customer appeal (since there are NO available scripts capable of this right out of the box). Cool

For my personal needs, I would pay for a modification of an already built Poll script that outputs charts using that library and after that an integration of this script with GCommunity.
I would like to know from GT (or any programmer interested) how much will this cost...

If GT will not consider my idea (but I DO hope they will), I will purchase the lib myself for my server but here's a plan: GT could purchase the "Redistribute License" which costs 499 dollars that gives "the right to embed ChartDirector runtime -the lib I'm talking about- in a product or system that is not for ChartDirector software development, and to redistribute that product or system to unlimited number of computers without further royalties".
I think this could be a tremendously good investment that will give you the right to incorporate and use that lib into GT (since one of the lib's features is that it doesn't need installation on the server system but can be bundled in a script like GT libs are).

So here's the URL: http://www.advsofteng.com
