Michael,
Is there a community mail list or web forum? If so, there should be
no
cost for subscribing and asking for help there.
Maybe openproject is the wrong project management tool.
There are at least two other F/OSS PM packages (information from
SlackBuilds.org):
GanttProject - free tool for project scheduling and management
GanttProject is GPL-licensed (free software) Java based, project
management software that runs under the Windows, Linux and Mac OSX
operating systems.
It features a Gantt chart for project scheduling of tasks, and doing
resource management using resource load charts. It has a number of
reporting options (MS Project, HTML, PDF, spreadsheets).
and
TaskJuggler is project management software for serious project
managers.
It covers the complete spectrum of project management tasks from the
first idea to the completion of the project. It assists you during
project scoping, resource assignment, cost and revenue planning, risk
and communication management.
TaskJuggler provides an optimizing scheduler that computes your project
time lines and resource assignments based on the project outline and
the
constraints that you have provided. The built-in resource balancer and
consistency checker offload you from having to worry about irrelevant
details and ring the alarm if the project gets out of hand.
The flexible as-many-details-as-necessary approach allows you to plan
your project as you go, making it also ideal for new management
strategies
such as Extreme Programming and Agile Project Management.
There's also Trac which is commonly used:
Trac is an enhanced wiki and issue tracking system for software
development
projects. Trac uses a minimalistic approach to web-based software
project
management. Our mission is to help developers write great software
while
staying out of the way. Trac should impose as little as possible on a
team's established development process and policies.
Pygments is optional (provides syntax highlighting).
HTH,
Rich

Appreciate the help Rich. OpenProject is Germany based, but there
is a community forum apparently if I can figure out how to use it...
These GPL'ed alternatives are worth looking into, unfortunately I have
lost at least 19-20 feature/bug entries with OpenProject CE giving me
errors.
