#2Looks interesting - does this library do animation of states from old to new (e.g. adding new data) in the same vein as, for example, c3.js?

#3Are bar value labels supported?

#4Looks great. I use Highcharts.js responsively by simply setting the chart width to % rather than pixels. After all, scalable is a key part of SVG.
Noting that Chartist is much leaner than Highcharts, how do you envision differntiating this project and avoid feature creep to make it like Highcharts.js 2.0?

#5Why prefer this over Chart.js [1] which is responsive as well?

#6Looks very pretty, but doesn't seem to offer hover states or actions / tooltips. I think this is a dealbreaker for a lot of users who wish to add contextual information to their charts.

#7Can I send these charts as images in emails? Google Charts is killing that features and we use it at work. SendGrid does the same thing.

Was thinking the same thing. Especially with financial charts, it saves a lot of time eyeballing and guessing. Sure, you can look at the data source for the raw values, but I'd rather just hover my mouse over the points.

I've run into some serious performance issues with chart.js on Firefox with moderately sized datasets.

Agreed. There is no mention of it in the "Important missing stuff", although their Getting Stated page does finish with
ADDING BEHAVIOR TO YOUR CHARTS
Coming soon...
Hopefully that means enabling chart interaction. Of course, by the time they add in the basic functionality which make data visualization useful, they'll have just repro'd ChartJs, HighCharts, or any of those other libraries.
