I am very pleased to announce the 0.2 release of the diagrams package,
an embedded domain-specific language for creating simple graphics in a
compositional style. This release includes a number of significant
new features, including:
* support for arbitrary straight and curved paths
* more shape primitives, including polygons and rounded rectangles
* support for rendering text
* PNG, PDF, PS, and SVG output
* built-in color support replaced with external dependence
on the feature-rich colour library
and many more! More information, examples, and installation
instructions can be found at http://code.haskell.org/diagrams. More
features are planned for future releases, so contributions and
suggestions are welcome.
(Please note: since diagrams depends on the Cairo library, which has
unfortunately not been Cabalized, you cannot install the diagrams
library with cabal-install, unless you already have the cairo package
installed. See the above website for instructions.)
A special thanks to Dougal Stanton for his contributions to the
library and help in preparing this release.

Would this make a handy plugin for gitit? I'm currently putting diagrams
together in xfig and saving them to my gitit tree while taking notes in
gitit, but being able to write diagrams code into gitit would be great.
How easy or hard would this be to accomplish?
