Project Management Open source

Hello,

I am just looking for an open source project management tool that I would be able to download and host myself instead of using an online one such as www.asana.com. As it just worries me a few months down the line they might start charging me and I would like to customize it to my needs.

-I do not particularly mind which language it is written in.

There's a few mentioned on the Wikipedia list.

Richard Rakin nice Wikipedia list you found.

Sebastian Wilson I started a quick discussion about project management, but not about self hosted ones. The only project I've used that was open source was OS Ticket. It may fit your needs, or it may not. You may enjoy the read nonetheless https://teamtreehouse.com/forum/project-management

Also, let me know if you find something similar to Asana that's self hosted.

@richardrakin I have a looked through the wiki list and a few have cough my eye, I will have a play with TACTIC from the videos it looks pretty good (Tasks and Schedules http://vimeo.com/47147864).

@ernestg I looked at your post last week and started using Asana from that :) but I would prefer to use an open source self hosted one. I'll have a look at osTicket as well.

Thanks a lot @richardrakin and @ernestg for your comments.

If anyone has any recommendations I would really be grateful.
