I've ported PyCha chart drawing library to work under SPING instead of Cairo. I've discussed that idea with PyCha lead developer - Lorenzo Gil Sanchez.
Lorenzo said he will still stick with Cairo, that is good library ported and available for many systems. Anyway I've ported PyCha to SPING and tested with SPING creating SpingCha off-project.
Here is lastly created PyCha news group , where you can find posts about PyCha development.
And - if anyone is interested - working SpingCha release in files section.

I don't understand how spingcha is different from pycha. It seems that spingcha uses cairo too. I thought one of the goals of the project was to be independent of cairo?
I'm not sure where are you referring to cairo usage. Either there are unfinished cairo "leftovers" - in that case it needs cleaning up. SpingCha tests were conductet in systems without working pycairo.
Or maybe you mean cairo usage by one of the Sping plugins?
The main goal was to add intermediate abstract layer to rendering engine- Sping is a kind of that library.
I hope it clears confusion.
