Some logins are admin1, jamie, and samuel. Passwords the same as logins. admin1 is an admin, the others aren't.

Some powers are not available even to the admin, but only to the super user (me, in this case).

Its a project management application aimed at small to mid sized graphic design businesses. This is just a demo site of it.

If you want to do anything "interesting" you probably want to log in as the admin. However, its not the most thrilling application in the world. Its designed to make certain basic management tasks simple -- organizing jobs by project, divying up jobs, distributing files for jobs to those who need them, monitoring project progress, and the like, while maintaining a fair degree of managerial control over who can do what.

I'm already working on a few extra features to include, such as some more statistical information (including a few different "summary" pages) and an XML-RPC interface (to hook a client side application into). Further suggestions are very welcome.

Cool, fugu! Mark actually just started a new job two days ago that includes creating a project tracking database (or maybe just rehashing the one he created for his last employer). And it's for a graphics department! [Smile] So I've heard all about the stuff you're working on, I'm sure. [Smile]

Okay, minor update is up. If you look at the projects page at the bottom, you can get both a projects statistics page (also in tab separated values form for import into spreadsheets) and an RSS feed. There are also RSS feeds for each individual project (linked on the appropriate page).

I don't see a way to track which person is assigned to which project (assuming this is a multi-person office)

I like it.

I'm not sure how it would be used, though. Are you able to make sub-projects under a major heading? Can you annotate a project to update it?

But still, you did a lot over the weekend.

I'm impressed.

Its more job oriented -- people check out the jobs they need to work on, and that shows up on the jobs page for that project.

I'll probably provide a summary view by person, too, I think.

*starts work on that*

So if I were to check out a job that "Bob" worked on yesterday -- it will tell me that Bob worked on it (and Suzie worked on it last week) and how far along the project is? (percent completed, or notes, or whatever)???

Yes, you can edit projects (well, people at the correct level of permissions can).

There isn't sub project functionality, partly because I think that's largely encompassed by the job functionality. It would start to become useful, I think, in larger groups than the application is otherwise designed to handle.

Hmmm, log functionality would be useful. *goes off to add that*
