Redmine is a free and open source, web-based project management and issue tracking tool. It handles multiple projects and subprojects.

Fork[edit]
Following concerns with the way the feedback and patches from the Redmine community were being handled[3] a group of Redmine developers created a fork of the project in February 2011.[4] The fork was initially named Bluemine, but changed to ChiliProject. As of 2014, the ChiliProject fork is generally considered to be a zombie project, as only security updates have occurred in the last year.[5] Moreover, the leader of the fork moved on from ChiliProject development in 2012.[6] Finally, the last activity on the ChiliProject Devel list was July 2013,[7] and the most recent commit was August 2013.[8] However, there is a fork of ChiliProject called OpenProject, which is being actively worked on.
