[Year 12 IPM] Gantt chart software

[Donna Benjamin]

Hi all

I just checked the FAQ
http://ganttproject.sourceforge.net/faq.php

 "Q: Is it possible to use hours as task duration?
  A: We are going to implement this feature in GanttProject 2.1"

So it seems that feature is planned for the next version.

As for adding costs to resources - I haven't been able to find out about
that, so perhaps emailing the developers or dropping a note in one of
the forums about how and why it would be a useful feature would be
worthwhile.

For details on checking out the Ganttproject mailing lists, support and
discussion forums check out
http://ganttproject.sourceforge.net/staytuned.php
