Even if it is not specialized for the specific type of diagrams that you need, I think you should find it easy to use to draw them. Its native format is SVG (Scalar Vector Graphics http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalable_Vector_Graphics), but it can export in many formats including PDF, EPS/PS and PNG. I use it to create the images that I import in my LaTeX docs.
