Announcing Fast Track

My employer (Optio Software <http://www.optio.com>
) has developed a  
tool in TurboGears for tracking project status.  We recently
decided  
to release it as an open source application.

I encourage you to take a look at it!  It runs on TurboGears
0.9a1,  
and has been working very well for us.  It has some warts,
but we  
thought it was good enough to get out to the community at
this point.

I have put up a trac instance here:

Here is the description from the website:

    Fast Track is a simple approach to project status
tracking.
    It was developed at Optio Software to fill a real need,
and
    is used there on a day-to-day basis. Fast Track is built
on
    top of the fantastic TurboGears web framework in the
Python
    Programming Language. In 2006, Optio decided to release
Fast
    Track as an open source project. We hope that it can be
employed
    and improved by others, and can be a good learning tool
for
    TurboGears programmers.

    Fast Track was designed to eliminate massive status
reports that
    had to be completed weekly by developers, then condensed
by project
    managers, and eventually delivered to senior management.
As an
    alternative, Fast Track provides a
"dashboard" view showing the
    current status of all projects, and allows you to
drill-down into
    greater detail about project status, using progress
notes, questions
    and answers, risks, issues, and uploaded files.

I hope you all enjoy!
