Open Workbench

Team,

I understand that Open Workbench (www.openworkbench.org) has been requested previously. It has some sort of open source licence - but it may be insufficient for this site. One of the guru's here will know. If the whole app cannot be released, then a wrapper would be appreciated.

I have spent the last week or two reviewing a variety of these project management apps - and am of the view that Open Workbench is by far the best if you want a serious (read steep learning curve, but really good) project management tool.

This would make a fine PortableApps addition.

I have looked at the following apps:

1) Open Workbench
2) GanttProject
3) OpenProj
4) GnomePlanner

OpenProj is a reasonable second place winner, and with the creation of an *.exe from the supplied *.bat file, runs well on PortableApps format. I can also get GanttProject and GnomePlanner to run, but they are too lightweight IMHO at the moment. Both are shaping up well, but are not ready to play with the two big boys.

There is some java magic to weave to get Open Workbench to run in a Portable Apps way, that I don't think I have the knowledge or time to figure out.

I hope someone pick this up.
