Update 04Jan06 -- SEH / Frank Bergmann-- The ]project-open[ project is actively seeking beta testers from now to the end of February 2006 for the 3.1 release of their product. The installer now supports both Windows and Linux (Debian). If this product is anything like what they say it is, it could be very helpful to Tcl'ers everywhere.

SEH -- 1/12/05 -- I was just lamenting the lack of Tcl-based project management and collaboration software to compete with the likes of PHP packages like Tutos and dotProject, when I stumbled on Project/Open [1]. It's based on OpenACS and looks very ambitious. Blows the competition out of the water if all claims are true.
