What do you mean when you say "graphing capabilities"?  To me, it sounds 
like this would be something Sage would be extremely interested in.  Are 
you talking about making it easier to use Sage to do 3d plots of 
functions?  2d plots of functions?  If so, I think we already have some 
input on some things to make it easier to work with jmol to do graphing.

Already, we can use jmol for 2d plots (embedded in 3d), though I think 
we draw the curves ourselves.  See http://sagenb.org/home/pub/517/ for 
examples.

I know we have looked at 2d plotting packages recently for doing things 
in javascript using the canvas element.  Some people have been 
experimenting with flot, for example (http://code.google.com/p/flot/).  
We've also proposed an html5 backend to matplotlib, similar to 
http://skuld.bmsc.washington.edu/~merritt/gnuplot/canvas_demos/ , though 
I don't think anyone is working on it.

Thanks,

Jason
