----------------------------------- Bobrobyn Sun Oct 11, 2009 6:52 pm Open Source Project Management Software ----------------------------------- Does anyone know of any good OS project management software? Something like trac would be awesome...but I would like something that's more project -> task -> notes on task, based...like basecamp...but you know, free. I'm the president of a student organization on campus, and having something that keeps track of: - Event/Project - Tasks - With notes on the task, each project having many tasks. - Who is responsible for each event/project and task Something collaborative, and if it has a wiki and stuff like trac, then all the better. I just don't really want it to be focussed too much on "software development" -- I don't really need bug tracking. What I want is task tracking for events/items to be done. We already have drupal installed and we use it for our website. If anyone knows of a good drupal module that offers something along these lines...then great :) Thanks guys, ----------------------------------- rdrake Sun Oct 11, 2009 7:13 pm RE:Open Source Project Management Software ----------------------------------- Check out [url=http://php.opensourcecms.com/scripts/show.php?catid=4&cat=Groupware]this site. It's got just about every open source groupware suite out there listed. An added bonus is it's got them all installed so you can check out demos of them and see how they work. ----------------------------------- Tony Sun Oct 11, 2009 9:31 pm RE:Open Source Project Management Software ----------------------------------- I think Dan and I are required to point you to http://basieproject.org/ ----------------------------------- btiffin Mon Oct 12, 2009 11:07 pm Re: Open Source Project Management Software ----------------------------------- old guy I've been pursuing, nay, questing for a good package, there are many, but few that garner unanimous usage support. There is always "a thing" with someone in the consensus. ;) But I've narrowed it down to TikiWiki http://info.tikiwiki.org for nerd groups, but alas can't use it at work due to lack of PostgreSQL, and Foswiki for managerial types. Foswiki has a nifty little macro engine that treats the wiki as the database and the database as the wiki. A few layers later and you have app page templates that chieftains can use, modify, own. A timesheet in Foswiki is Nerds will cross link all the channels and overwhelm themselves with information, then pretend to still have a clue about the project focus. My humble opinion ... and I'll admit I still look for good all round collaboration tools. I'm going to run some tests at how Foswiki might handle detecting svn changes, running the unit tests and making a nice failure report, graph, spreadsheets... rambling almost over TikiWiki gives you an all in system. Tasks, shouts, forums, a pretty sophisticated tracker system for all kinds of in wiki page applications ... but ... it's a 1,000,000 lines of PHP code system, all the features need usage experience, and then to get them playing well together... over Cheers
