GraphVizLayout is pretty useful when you have large graphs without a particular order. MOGraphVizLayout provides convenience constructors (both class and instance side) for the different layouts supported by GraphViz. The spring layouts offered are pretty interesting.
The layouts are described briefly here: http://www.graphviz.org/

Hi Doru,
If MOGraphVizLayout is useful, then it should be part of Moose 4.0. However, I am not sure it has to be part of Mondrian itself. MOGraphVizLayout use OSProcess, and I think that Mondrian should not depend on OSProcess.
Cheers, Alexandre

Hi,
It looks like most issues related to 4.0 are solved, with the exception of the Glamour cycle which I moved to 4.1. So, I would say that we can now release 4.0.
I would only have one question: What would you say about including the MOGraphVizLayout in this release? On the one hand, it offers a number of new layout possibilities, on the other hand it requires GraphViz to be installed in the command line and it works only on Linux and Mac (however, there is a check).
Cheers, Doru
