"FYIReporting Designer is a report and charting system based on Microsoft's Report Definition Language (RDL). Tabular, free form, matrix, charts are fully supported. HTML, PDF, XML, .Net Control, and printing supported. A WYSIWYG designer allows you to create reports without knowledge of RDL. Wizards are available for creating new reports and for inserting new tables, matrixes, and charts into existing reports." (http://www.fyireporting.com/)
Use the report viewer .NET controls from ASP.NET, WPF, or Winforms using C#, F#, VB.NET, IronPython, or any other .NET language. The winform viewer also works in linux using mono. There is also a basic Gtk# (gtk-sharp) viewer.
Majorsilence Reporting started as My-FyiReporting which was a fork of fyiReporting after it died. It has been rebranded as Majorsilence Reporting to make it clearer that it is a separate forked project. Majorsilence Reporting is a fork of fyiReporting. I cannot stress this enough. This is a FORK. The main purpose is to make sure that I have a copy of fyiReporting since that project seems to be dead. I am leaving the github project named My-FyiReporting so links are not broken. All branding will eventually be replaced with Majorsilence Reporting.
Also check this projects wiki as information will be slowly added.
Majorsilence Reporting is currently built with visual studio 2010 and 2012 and targets .net 4.0. You can also run the build script in the Release-Builds folder to build .net 3.5 (may be broken) and 4.0 packages.
If you have NuGet installed, the easiest way to get started is to install Majorsilence Reporting via NuGet:
This will setup My-FyiReporting in your project ready to use the viewers or designer.

#RDL Compliance Report file format specifications can be obtained from microsoft. I believe fyiReporting is currently mostly compatiable with RDL 2005. If you want to add more features see the specfications.

#User interface tutorials: ReportingCloud (another fork) has made some tutorials for using the designer and creating reports. http://sourceforge.net/projects/reportingcloud/files/
I know there are other forks but last I checked they also seemed to be dead. The main fyiReporting site is found at http://www.fyireporting.com/ and it has exmpales found at http://www.fyireporting.com/helpv4/index.php and the forum is http://www.fyireporting.com/forum/index.php. However has I said above for the most part it is a dead project.
UPDATE: ReportFU http://reportfu.org is alive?
UPDATE: NReport http://nreports.codeplex.com/ - Looks dead.
