MrProject (http://mrproject.codefactory.se/) has a good reputation,
although I have not used it myself. "project management" gets 186 hits
on freshmeat, giving you an idea of how many others have followed this
path.

I'm reminded of something attributed to the great 19th Century
physician, Osler: "If there are many treatments for the same condition
equally popular, then probably none of them are particularly effective."

I suppose I don't need to say this, but I will anyway. The tool you use
is far less important than the process you put in place.
