New significant release of ProjectLibre

We are pleased to announce the release of ProjectLibre 1.5.5.  This has significant improvements, most that are not visible.  We previously announced the ongoing effort to complety rewrite the ProjectLibre codebase. This process is  well under way and will be released with a target of late Summer.  Laurent and the team are amazing!  It is common knowledge that we exclusively wrote the OpenProj code a decade ago.  The code is complex and virtually impossible to attract code contribution due to the complexity.

ProjectLibre update: major progress behind the scenes and community

 

I wanted to send an update to the community on ProjectLibre's progress.  It is important to communicate this as there is major progress but it is all "under the hood".  ProjectLibre is now being used in literally every country in the world.  It is exciting to see the ProjectLibre usage flourish.  We  also enjoy the user stories and appreciated comments about delivering a free, open source alternative to Microsoft Project.  Please send your user stories!   We understand there is a lot of work ahead but we are moving forward rapidly.....

ProjectLibre beta 5 release & feedback

We are pleased to announce the release of ProjectLibre beta 5 later today. Laurent & the team have done an amazing job!  I literally don't know when the sleep happens with their team.....  We are going to continue with improvements, so want your feedback!  We are also commencing the work of rearchitecting the core and ProjectLibre Server.  This is necessary so we can integrate our Server development along with making customizations/integrations easier.

Interview with Sourceforge on ProjectLibre's release

I had a very nice interview with Sourceforge today.  They were looking to feature ProjectLibre on their website.  You can either read the article or listen to the Podcast.  It gives some insight into our project and desire for community support. http://sourceforge.net/blog/podcast-projectlibre/

Translations progressing rapidly and Japanese release of ProjectLibre UI

There has been a lot of progress on the documentation with ProjectLibre.  The community contributions are truly appreciated.  We do need more content added to the dccumentation.  You can access the English version here and add content.  We also just released a Japanese version of ProjectLibre.  The user interface was translated by community member Takahiro Morita.  Thank you Takahiro-san! We have lagged usage in Japan and this will certainly help the user community.

80,000 downloads and the community is growing rapidly

The open source movement is growing rapidly.  ProjectLIbre is a shining light for the impact open source can have around the world competing against proprietary software.  ProjectLibre now has more than 80,000 downloads in essentially every country in the World covered in this usage.  Our reach is powerful with the open source model.  We are getting many language translations and downloads are extremely distributed, only 20% of the downloads are in the United States.

ProjectLibre progress & plans: Downloads now in 129 countries and growing!

It has been quite a couple of weeks for the ProjectLibre team!  The team worked behind the scenes for many months rewriting ProjectLibre and adding many features.  That process will continue until the entire re-write is completed.  It has been very satisfying to finally post the beta for usage.  The response has been great, as of this evening we've had downloads in 129 countries with only 21% of the downloads from the United States.  That is an amazing first 10 days!
