Pretty network diagrams and flow charts with Open Source software.
I had been using Dia for all my charts and diagrams, and it does a very good job. The only downside is that it doesn’t produce very pretty charts of the like of Omnigraffle. However, inspired by this article, I’m starting to use a new solution, Inkscape, that fulfills my criteria that works on Linux, Mac and Windows. Now you may argue that Inkscape is not a diagraming tool but a generic drawing tool. This is true, but with the addition of a few templates of pre-drawn items it become a very good diagramming tool. I’ve created a few simple flow chart elements which I use and also scoured the net for some SVG icons for network based diagrams which were sourced from Gnome (via Ubuntu) and from Quantum Bits.
