I have been researching project management platforms that are built on, or competing with Drupal, and didn't know where to post this, so it's here for now. I need to find a project management platform for the local currency project in Sarasota. I don't know whether Drupal/Storm is ready for that, or whether another mature 'out-of-the-box' project exists.

D-cubed

I've been playing with D-cubed, based on tiddlywiki, because it implements the GTD philosophy/strategy for 'getting things done' in a project. I haven't mastered the GTD methodology, but I am very impressed with it as an application. It's got everything a project team would need behind a firewall - because the AJAX-based technology needs write access to create files. I've been looking for a PM system that can be hosted and used by collaborators outside a firewall, because D3 is inadequate, having no security whatsoever. But I thought the well-developed AJAX implementation might be a worthy candidate for a platform based on Pharo/Seaside. Just thinking out loud.

Chandler

So I recently came across the Chandler project. It seems to be one of the best-ever implementations of GTD-flavored PM's out there, and worthy of study for a PM platform. My concern is that it's difficult to determine whether the chandler project is actually dead, or in suspended animation. There has been no development activity for about 3 years. Also, the build of the client is not really straightforward to install in Ubuntu, and I have no idea how easily the Windows or Mac versions install or work. For syncing with collaborators, the technology depends on Chandler Hub, which seems to be still alive.

Has anyone on the team any recommendations? --Infomaniac 16:37, 24 July 2011 (PDT)
