What is the feeling of the developers here about using JFreeChart:

Here is the GNU Lesser General Public Licence license:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.html
that it utilizes. I am writing the screens for an AR collections tool and
want to present the last 6 to 12 months of sales and a picture (bar chart in
this case) is worth a thousand words.
Can a commit which uses JFreeChart be accepted?
Yes, it is acceptable, but, have a look at this page:
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/Libraries+Included+in+OFBiz
because there are some notes about LGPL libraries:
"We can use, but can not include, libraries licensed with LGPL. The
licensing quirk here is that we can write code that uses the libraries
but can't include (distribute) the libraries themselves. This means that
we have to have the build.xml files out of the box with exclusions for
these source files. For each one we should document which jar files are
needed, where they can be obtained, and which build.xml file(s) need to
be changed to compile the Java files that depend on them."
Hope it helps,
Jacopo
