BTW, have you been following the standardisation effort for a common "Project
Management Exchange Format" ? Most of the open tools for project management are
participating (Task Juggler, Gantt Project, Kplato, OOPM...). For those
interrested, you should subscribe to the mailing list (~10 mails/week) :

http://www.opmef.org/
http://opendocumentfellowship.org/OPMEF/HomePage

It would really be nice if all the projects tools could have a common format !
