Is there an alternative to .net's Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting assembly?

Is there an alternative to .NET's Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting assembly? The re-implementation in mono is far from being finished.

I don't care if the interface is different from the .NET one, I'm simple looking for a free (open-source) charting library for .net (4.0), which is usable in mono.

    For such purpose I used ZedGraph. It does work on Mono's winforms, it is open source and quite nice. There was no upgrades for long time, however you still have the source code. I recommend trying it.

    I've just made a screenshot of their sample project using this library:
