Planner
Planner is a project
management tool which supports Gantt charts,
resource allocation and integration with other GNOME
applications.
Its goal is to be an easy-to-use no-nonsense cross-platform
project
management application. It can store its data in either XML
files or in a PostgreSQL
database. Projects can also be printed to PDF or exported to HTML for
easy
viewing from any web browser. Included in the HTML document
is a simplified Gantt chart, task list (with %complete, start, end,
work, and resource columns), and a resource allocation table.
It is an excellent way to give people easy access to project
status information.
The MS Project XML import is new and considered
experimental. Microsoft Project version 2002 and above
supports saving project files in XML format.
Planner was formerly known as Imendio Planner.
