Description of problem:
Grace is a very good and extremely stable and mature plotting tool.

There is no good plotting tool for scientists in the Fedora project. I have 
worked in research departments in Spain and USA both using RedHat os and the 
first thing that the system admin had to do after the installation was to 
install Grace. I have been the sys admin for a research department and at least 
in this department Grace makes the linux choice possible. RedHat (now Fedora) 
is not viable for this environment without Grace.

Grace is an open source project ported even to VMS.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
test3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Not aplicable

This sounds like Fedora Extras Candidates. I have a package for Grace
if it is wanted.
Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2005-03-02 21:27:03 UTC 
This is a good candidate for Fedora Extras:
