Open Workbench — an Alternative Way of the Project Management
作者: 赵博 • 2006 年 8 月 17 日 • 技术主义 • 暂无评论
遇到了一系列项目管理问题后，我逐渐对项目管理产生了兴趣。 最初是我在做“集思”网络地图系统的时候，遇到了CVS，当然还有后来的SVN和Google最近推出的服务。在湖泊所哪里也用WinCVS做版本控制，而在我们的实验室里，CVS还仅仅是一个概念，尚未运用起来。希望如果我加入了系统开发课题组以后，要大大推进CVS或者SVN在软件管理方面的应用。
当我第一次进入我的实验室，便被这里的设备惊呆了，非常豪华，偌大的至强处理器，呵呵，仅仅用于ftp下载的server？？不觉得浪费资源么？小百合在服务区端安装MS Project 2003 Server，大大降低了团队协作的项目的工作难度，增加了协调度。其实我们完全有必要将Project 2003 Serve一类的Project Management软件用在我们的项目管理中。这将 摆脱我们每日仅用Popo传输的痛苦，降低博士们对我们进行监督的难度，提高工作效率，要知道我们画甘特图不仅仅是画，更重要的是要来协助我们管理项目的生命周期，MS Project 2003是这方面的王者。
但是我们也不能忽视OpenSource在项目管理方面对商业软件的入侵和替代过程，OpenWorkbench就做了很好的工作，虽然现在只是支持desktop，我相信在不久的将来，网络版将会大大发挥其功效。
