Hi there!

In the past three months I did some groupware ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groupware ) experiments with my colleagues, using activeCollab. Results are very encouraging, so I decided to switch to something more powerful (an open source solution called qdPM).

However, while looking for reference about the topic, I stumbled on Trac ( http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7092992681785221868# ).

Files shared as if you had one pc, tasks automatically assigned and reassigned on the fly (with full accountability), wiki reference you can build on the spot... and the lot with a simple, clean and fast interface!

It really seem a dream come true but, of course, it is tailored to the needs of programmers and converting it to ours seems to require quite some editing...

Anyone had experiences in this field?
