Pentaho, BIRT, JasperReports (and associated tools like iReport), JFreeReport, DataVision, OpenReports, FreeReportBuilder, rlib, fyiReporting and xTuple are some to take a look at. There's a lot of overlap and repackaging of much the same underlying engines in there.
The first three are the most commonly mentioned.
Cheers,
Steve

FWIW, my cow-orkers are quite happy with BIRT (especially with the designer
environment in Eclipse) after having used Crystal and Actuate previously.
I've no idea how BIRT compares with the other OSS tools, but compared to
those two using BIRT was quite a step up in terms of ease of use / available
documentation & debugging tools.

Most scientists think that the not-fossil theory is a red herring;
indeed, they think that oil is lots of herrings (and other things)
compacted over time into sticky black mud.
