Free treemapping software

Question

Is there any free desktop software for treemapping? Every one I've found appears to have a commercial license. Many Eyes is free and has treemapping features but what I'm really looking for is downloadable desktop software.

Thanks in advance.

Protovis has an nice treemap layout. I could try to add this into webvis if you want to create it from R, but it isn't currently an option.

Thanks, Jeromy. Actually this is even better than what I asked. – Carlos Accioly Aug 26 '10 at 14:25

While I haven't used either of these, I have these two projects bookmarked:

Both are implemented in Java, are free and open source (MIT and Apache 2.0 licenses, respectively). Both appear to be actually libraries, but seem to come with an example application.

The treemap package for R is superior - better look, much more flexible - to the map.market function in package portfolio featured in FlowingData's tutorial.
