This looks like excellent work.

Any chance on supporting other formats like spreadsheets, csv, or generic XML schemas s.t. I can just specify a couple of xpaths as the node end points and have it figure out how to draw the graph?

Gephi supports CSV imput already and has some plans to make assistant plugins to import data from other sources like Excel files, RDF or XML.

Excellent. One of the problems I've always had with graph viz tools is the need to cram my data into some predefined schema to make the tool work instead of having the tool do that kind of stuff for me.

Been playing around with it for a bit. Amazing work for a beta release. The "generate random network" option is fantastic. Some GUI bugs, like drag doesn't seem to want to turn back on, but really great stuff.

Yes there is a bug with drag. I just filled a bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/gephi/+bug/546986

Support for weka's file format would be great as well
