Hi Dave, We're investigating different ways to provide Google Image Charts. We don't have anything to announce now, and can't make any promises, but we would like to provide server-side rendering of charts as an alternative to the client-side rendering available today via the Google Charts API.
Unfortunately, open sourcing isn't an option. Most of the code written at Google has extensive dependencies on our internal technology stack, and that's true of Google Image Charts. To make it useful to people outside Google, we'd have to effectively rewrite the code from scratch. (We do open source a lot, but it's typically code created from the get-go to be open source, like Android or Chromium.)
