Hi,

with the upcoming Dia 0.97 you could use the new Outline tool, break
up your text into smaller parts
and align them manually along your. path. But I guess this is not what
you are looking for.

Inkscape can do what you want (Use the Text->Put on Path menu entry).
Unfortunately if you open the SVG generated by Inkscape in Dia, the
text will not be on the path.

Regards,

Steffen
