Hi,
its a bit off topic here but I hope to get some links. For my talk at
DebConf Online I want to analyse contributions on a monthly or weekly
base and plot graphs (either with gnuplot or R - whatever I can find an
easier solution with). I can generate the data from a postgresql
database in whatever sensible input format is needed. I failed to
seek successfully for examples for plotting integer numbers over months
or weeks of several years.
Any hints?
Haven't run it myself, but matplotlib has plot_date()

Pandas might make it easier still,

Pandas is awesome for handling real-world data (including gappy data
points)
