Re: When version 1.0 will be released?
Version 1.0.0 will be released "when it is ready". I hope that will be during 2003 (most likely the latter half) but it depends on a lot of unpredictable factors. You can make it happen sooner by contributing code for some of the missing pieces.
Yes, the API keeps changing (and especially so for the upcoming 0.9.5 release). Yes, I know that makes it difficult for people to 'upgrade' to more recent releases of JFreeChart. But that's how I choose to develop JFreeChart. If you absolutely must have a stable API, then you have several choices:
(1) buy a commercial chart library;
(2) stick with one release of JFreeChart, and back-port any bug fixes you require;
(3) take the JFreeChart source code and start your own 'stable API' project. That is what the 'Free' in JFreeChart is really about, your freedom to do something like that.
