We’re currently using Redmine to track both software and production projects. At the bosses prompting, I spent a fair bit of time last week looking for improvements to the Gantt chart capabilities in Redmine, or for a similar product (Trac, Jira, etc) that does Gantt “well enough.” Sadly I didn’t find any. We’re all Mac heads here, so the first possibility that leapt to mind is to be able to connect a Redmine project to an OmniPlan project, and to be able to round-trip the tasks between the two, so we can do scheduling and levelling in OmniPlan, which shines at this, and use Redmine to track the changes to the “parts,” whether they’re software or hardware, and the associated tests and procedures.
Does OmniPlan have any sort of API that might be used to do this? Is there a document on the pub/sub API, for instance?
