Why are you on this subproject?
-------------------------------

I'm interested in an open project management tool that would step away from exclusive Gantt chart approach. Me along with number of other people at our company attemped to work with MS Project, but it is to simple, too linear, not enough thought is given to the unpredictable and floating tasks.

What do you wish for in a project management tool?
--------------------------------------------------

I would like for it to take into consideration that I have at least 6-12 floating tasks at hand, whose dates often get swapped. I cannot work with just the linear model as there is nothing linear about some of the work we do. I am often in charge of pilot software, which means I do not have the comfort of well planned and structured approached stretching over weeks at a time. In my case it is often R&D and development in one move in order to determine feasibility. My ideal project management tool would also be my organizer with personal tasks and Outlook like calendar, where I could also plot dependencies.

What (if any) can you contribute with?
--------------------------------------

Beta testing for sure, (possibly some Java development, though I doubt it at the moment), I can also test out your software in multiuser environment as I should not have a problem recruiting other developers.

What can we (as a subproject) do to develop OOPM?
-------------------------------------------------

(not sure about the context of this question but here it goes:) We need a feature list for sure, and from the get go should not look to just copy MS Project.

What background do you have related to this subproject?
-------------------------------------------------------

I'm a System Specialist, working on several projects at a time. I am currently working with a number of tools to keep track of my workflow. Unfortunately I find that it is often the case with people trying to organize themselves.

Radek.
