How to manage a project for free?

I was asked to manage and develop a project. The client doesn't care if I hire people to do it or if I do it myself. So I decided to be more of a manager than a developer.

Are there any (free / low cost) web projects that could help me communicate with every "sub developer" on the internet?

I expect I will have a similar basecamp project, however the sub-developers will not know about each other because I will be the communicator between them. Basecamp might include such a service, but I'm not going to pay for all sorts of similar services to know.

If you have real experience with such a problem that I am about to face, write here.

As many open source projects have been found, trac is a handy light project management with a built in subversion interface :

Trac is an advanced viking and issue tracking system for software development projects. Trac takes a minimalist web-based project management approach. Our mission is to help developers write great software while staying on the sidelines. Trac should impose as little as possible on the team's established development process and policy.

It provides an interface to Subversion, an integrated Wiki, and easy-to-use reporting tools.

Trac allows wiki markup in problem descriptions and posting, creating links and seamless links between bugs, tasks, changesets, files and wiki pages. The timeline shows all the current and past events of the project in order, making it very easy to get an overview of the project and track progress. The roadmap shows the road ahead, listing upcoming milestones.



Both trac and subversion can be used anywhere on the Internet using one of the free or low cost providers (see TracUsers for some links ).

I would install sharepoint if I were you. It is ideal for handling projects and communicating with participants. Also set up multiple mailing lists where you can communicate easily.

I'd suggest looking at Assembla , it has issue tracking, version control, and Trac support in it - and it's free.

Perhaps you can do this with the free version of AceProject .

There is quite a lot of software available for project management, here I suggest you check out ProofHub - https://www.proofhub.com (head up - I work there). This allows you to capture both a complete picture and a detailed snapshot of your plans and progress. Gantt charts and task management feature provide a clear picture for you to understand what is working and what needs to be done. You can track task dependencies on a Gantt chart to see the progress of your projects. Here's what it looks like: ProofHub Review
