Right...
limit_months was there to control how far back in time the line graph went.
When looking at the code recently, it occured to me that it didn't apply
to the pie graph, which makes it less useful and somewhat counterintuitive.
We basically need to modify the grapher to also take that info into
consideration for the pie graph.
Incidentally, I'd be interested in a new scan, even without new
features, when you get a chance...
I may also have some more time to work on EKG (occasionally) in January.
Cobbler 1.4 is consuming me at the moment :)

One thing I'd really like to see is a row of pie graphs for each quarter
(or year) to see how things change over time.
Or even a row of pie graphs like:
"lifetime", "last year", "this year", "last
month"
Last month ideally would do the last /full/ month because sometimes it's
going to be so early it's statistically insignificant.
The other thing that bothers me is the line graphs also show incomplete
months which makes it look like traffic on /everything/ drops off, which
is not true.
These should also not show the current month if they want to avoid that
graphical illusion.
