Re: [SLUG] Project Management software
That's a bummer. Have to admit it was early last year when I was looking at it. There's this: http://sourceforge.net/projects/midnightxen/ Registered: 2000-11-30 12:03 Midnight Xen is a project to finish the Xen project manager for zope. We also intend to implement Gantt and Pert Chart features. The first priority is to make a build that works right on improt into Zope and then re-initiate the security later. But, yeah: Activity Percentile: 0% Is not looking good. dd Jobst Schmalenbach wrote: On Thu, Apr 19, 2001 at 03:34:56PM +1000, Des Devlin ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: Runs under Zope.

I would start by looking at your requirements; * What type of project management do you need? eg. Scheduling, collaboration, tracking * What type of project are you trying to manage? eg. construction, software development. Is there something industry specific out there already? * Your budget =) There are a lot of free web based packages you could use or adapt. Bugzilla is handy and could be adapted as a problem reporting/tracking tool for most projects. If you are doing software development, I would give SourceForge a go. Of course you could also roll your own using some sort of script/db hybrid.

RE: [SLUG] Project Management software
Some folks use Artemis. It's a bloated thick client, oracle based, that runs on NT and probably other things. Managers seem to be able to use it. Lotus has something too, and that prolly runs on Linux. The freeware stuff isn't quite up to hardware engineering project management although for software project management I think there are some potentially nice things being developed... there are a few little ones on freshmeat. I think Umar had some comments about large-ish project management s/w - check last year's archive maybe. Wasn't Linux based though. We are also looking at "Product Data Management" S/W. Again, haven't seen anything for Linux. Some of the more decent ones run on big iron though. I look at the offerings and see if the s/w is extensible, able to grow with the company, supportable without having to hire a team of programmers, what are the annual license fees, rock solid db backend, runs on various platforms, web front end, who can get you out of a bind if it breaks, bla bla bla.
