Nice Doug.  What about dates?  In theory how would that part hook up?
 I would argue that a time line of dates might be the most important part.

I like what you did a lot.  If we could combine what you did with the
sliders with how the scheduler works I think we would have a really
useful Gantt chart.  I'm going to try it out.  I'm only on day 11 of
my Flex career though ;).  

If we do start building a Gantt chart as a community is there a place
where we can post and share code/examples?  Should I just post links
to this mailing list?  When we make something cool should we just send
it to Doug to put on his blog? ;)  I'm really a .NET developer and we
would use Codeplex if we wanted to do a project like this.  I was
wondering if flex had anything like that.

I'm going to start a feature list.  Please adjust/add/subtract to it
depending on what you want/need in a Gantt chart.

Features wish list:
  Bar chart type representation
  Time line of dates at the top and/or bottom
  Have a mechanism to adjust the length and position of the bar (like
Doug's example)
  Zoom feature to look at the dates by hour/day/month/quarter/year
(like the scheduler does)

Please add to this list! :)
