OpenProj, the clone open source of Microsoft Project, has been unloaded more than 500000 times. To say it is Marc O'Brien, CEO of Projity, the company that sponsors the plan. The administrator supports that the plan boasts customers in 142 countries, than many important companies already has expressed itself in favour of OpenProj and some, which the Bank of America, Hewlett-Packard, General Electric, IBM, Siemens, Toshiba, Honeywell, Nortel, quite have already unloaded it and installed; moreover the members of the community have already translate it in a dozen of languages.
OpenProj reads and opens plan rows, a function that renders the migration from a plan the much easiest one, and has the advantage to turn on Linux, Unix, Windows and Mac CPAL (Common Public Attribution License Version 1,0).

To convert rows video in 3gp

I have already spoken about winff, a graphical interface of ffmpeg a lot that is works them and intuitiva that introduces a series of preset, of formulations already preconstituted, that they render the conversion of the rows in the several formats simple. However because of the usual problems on codec the owners ubuntu nserisce in its repo a version “bad” of ffmpeg, which, as an example, does not have assets the codec for the conversion in 3gp for the cellular ones. To forehead of this ascertainment, and finding such difficulties in the conversion, the error of winff is: “unknown codec libamr-nb”, I have supplied to unload, through svn, from the site of ffmpeg the version “full” and to activate the supports libamr-nb, libamr-wb etc…
This the procedure:

  1. svn checkout svn: /svn.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg
  2. cd ffmpeg
  3. ./configure - prefix=/usr - enable-shared - libdir=/usr/lib - enable-liba52 - enable-gpl - enable-pthreads - enable-x11grab - enable-libamr-nb - enable-libamr-wb - enable-libfaac - enable-nonfree - enable-libmp3lame *
  4. make
  5. make install

Here that all it works.

* Naturally I have had to satisfy a series of dependencies otherwise to passage 3 I would have been immediately blocked with an error.
