Re: circular histograms

[Jean Bréfort <jean brefort normalesup org>]

Please open a bug report against either goffice or gnumeric (preferably
the first one).
I have doubts about it to be a histogram. What is proportional to the
data, the radius or the surface? Does it makes sense to have different
angle spans in a same plot?
