Info on Project Management Tools and SDS Tools

[msk at afinitc.UUCP]

Greetings and Salutations.

We are looking for any information on  project  management  tools
under  UNIX (including a system named "PROMPT"). You know, things
like critical path scheduling, Gantt  charts,  ...  A  desireable
system  would include the ability to blow up tasks into subtasks,
do corporate-wide resource allocation, be easy to  use  for  non-
computer types, and run under System III.

We are also looking for UNIX-based tools  comprising  a  Software
Development System.

An SDS is basically a problem tracker. For example, when a report
of  a  bug  (to a controlled application) comes in, an identifier
would be assigned and all work involved in  fixing  that  problem
would   be   tracked  under  that  identifier.  Actions  such  as
interfacing to "sccs" and "make" would be controlled by the  SDS.
Having  multiple  programmers  working on the same (or different)
pieces of the source of the application should not be disallowed.
Version  control  for  releasing  new versions of the product may
also be controlled.

As a former Bell Laboratories employee, I  know  that  there  are
such  systems at the Labs (I worked on one such system), but they
have been developed in-house and I don't really believe that AT&T
is ready to issue this stuff to the rest of the world.

Please mail any responses directly to me and I will summarize  to
the net all the good info I get.

THANKS IN ADVANCE!
