[OSGeo-Discuss] project management software (foss) for GISprojects

[maning sambale]

Thank you for all the tips.  I'm trying the trac for the meantime.  I
thinks it meets some of the functions we need like detailing the
roadmap for tasks and activities.  As well as assigning who is in
charge.  This would work for us in the meantime.

We'll try other PMS as well.

cheers,

maning
