I wrote grava which is a vala-cairo based canvas to draw graphs and make them interactive. I plan to release 
something new by the end of summer.

In the other side. Graphviz is great. Layouts are not easy to implement and the api could be better. It can 
render in png or svg, so you can embed this easily with gtk.

You can read xdot.py source. It would be great to have it in vala.it respects the layouts of graphviz and is 
interactive with some animations.

Another option is to write your own one from scratch..and i will probably use clutter in order to benefit 
from cool animations and simpler coding plus gobject goods.

Hello,

the last days i was fighting with some linux diagram editors (such as
dia, umbrello, argouml...). And these programs don't cover my needs.

graphviz could be to some use
http://www.graphviz.org/

i dont know of any GUI frontend for it under linux
(but the dot syntax is easy, for some diagrams)
