As for the "project management" part, it's quite obvious to me that Org
qualifies, at least for 90% of the core functions that are needed to be
a "project management tool" (see the recent discussion on dependencies.)

But I guess the important side of your question is: can I use Org as a
*collaboration* tool?

Well -- please do :)

1. One idea is to put an Org file on a CVS server, letting people check
   it in and out, so that everybody knows what he has to-do and what is
   the state of the project.

2. Another idea is to give someone the responsability to maintain an Org
   file dispatching to-do list items through the team, displaying clear
   deadlines, tasks status, etc.

3. The third idea is to let a web interface directly operate changes on
   underlying Org files. I think this is achievable: Org files are text,
   but with a reasonable set of conventions to format them we could edit
   them through another tool.  
   
   I don't think such a tool exist right now, but that would actually be
   fun.

What PM/collaborative features do you have in this that you would like
to see in Org?
