I agree about the possibility of keeping both, but since it seems nobody is
maintaining Ploticus, and it looks like it has been disabled for at least 2
years because of a security hole, I think it's time to Ploticus abandoned.

I just took a look at jqPlot, and it is just as impressive as PHPlot, but with
a completely different style. I think both jqPlot and PHPlot will appeal to SMW
users in different circumstances.

So far, only the bar chart and the pie chart seem to be implemented for jqPlot,
even though it can do far more than that. I haven't looked at the documentation
for it yet, but I'm guessing it would be straightforward to use the current SRF
bar and pie code as a guide for gluing the other features into SRF. I might
have a look at it later. 

Too bad I'm not a talented coder, I think it would be fun to get both jqPlot
and PHPlot full feature sets incorporated into SRF. Since jqPlot has a flexible
plugin architecture, it may be more complicated to make everything work with
SRF. 

I'd have to look at how it's designed - maybe it's designed with a pattern that
can be dealt with programmatically for all new features that plugins can
provide, but I doubt it.
