Abstract: Roassal2 is an agile visualization engine. Thanks to some advanced scripting facilities, one can easily paint and interact with objects. Roassal2 offer a great range of features: 
	- based on Athens and Cairo for smooth and fast drawing, 
	- advanced bezier curves for drawing organic lines, 
	- exportable to plain HTML / Amber / VisualWorks,
	- advanced support for curve and chart drawing,
	- offer a framework for easily defining sophisticated visualizations, ...
Roassal2 is being used in a large range of domains, including code execution profiling, source code quality, geographical maps, visualization of stellar pictures.
The presentation will be demo-driven.
