PMango is a web based L/WAMP application for project planning and control.

Background. The PMango project was set up to support students carrying out projects in software engineering courses. This particular context defined the foundations of the application, which now provides features to:
  • draw Gantt, WBS and Task Network diagrams;
  • check and validate the well-formedness of a project plan;
  • evaluate planned and actual effort distribution against well know models;
  • log activities and control actual effort during project development;
  • compare plans at different stages in project life and analyze project performance;
  • produce printable project reports as PDF documents;
Check the project section for more details.

Target user community. The original PMango philosophy of "training and supervision" fits well for usage in organizations at their early stages in using project management and workflow methods and technologies. PMango is designed to be used for:
  • introducing project management techniques in small organizations;
  • remote consulting and project supervision;
  • educational support and professional training.
Status. The first PMango release was an additional module for dotProject. The current release is an independent application that reuses part of the dotProject code. An installation of PMango is running at the Dept. of Computer Science of the University of Pisa, it supports teaching activities and is available for demo. Sources, distributed under GNU GPL, are kept on Sourceforge.

Mid/long term goals. Objectives under consideration or already under development for next releases of PMango are:
  • using existing project data as templates for new projects;
  • porting to Postgres;
  • reengineering and improving of the user interface;
  • integration with tools of product and configuration management.
