You are wrong about drawing. Actually it looks like most of the records
require for charting are there. Just someone needs to create a high level
API and low level model for putting them together.

'Need to be started' would be more accurate.
Someone correct me if I am wrong. But charts depend on the drawing layer. So
I don't think you can get chart support until after you implement the
drawing layer.
Implementation of the drawing layer would allow you to insert images into
your workbook. And draw lines, rectangles, arrows, flowcharts, etc. It's a
huge task.
Even after there is support for the Office Drawing objects, charts will
probably be another huge task on top of that. Image support has been
promised "real soon now". However, I would expect it will be a few more
months (at least).
On 5/30/2003,Nope, but that�s my priority numero uno once I get back from JavaOne. It will take a few months, but we'll make it happen.
On 10/23/2003,There should be some escher support being committed Real Soon Now(tm). Stay tuned.
On 12/3/2003,Well I have some code which almost goes as far as letting you do this that unfortunately I can't release it yet.

Subject: Excel charts
I noticed on the HSSF todo list that the charts are under the 'Need to be
Finished' category. I also looked through this list a bit, but I'm wondering
what the current status is and if there is an ETA?
Personally, I need to be able to change the chart axis titles based on the
data coming in, but I know that I (and others) could find many other tasks
to accomplish once this is completed.
Thanks for the hard work!
