At Freelock Computing, several of our clients are looking for decent project management tools. We think we're going to roll our own solution, but have found a few new options.

First of all, a cross-platform desktop project management tool: GanttPV - Open Source Software for Project Management. Many of the desktop-oriented tools are rapidly gaining features comparable to MS Project, mainly in terms of resource scheduling. GanttProject is definitely getting more mature, while Ganttlet appears to be mostly ignored but just the thing for whipping out a quick Gantt chart.

Next, a couple of web-based applications. Achievo is a basic resource scheduling and time tracking application. While the interface seems pretty lame, it has some great plugins available, and may well meet your needs quickly. Finally, Projectory is a Perl-based project scheduling application.
