Anyone know if there is anything out there along the same lines as basecamp (http://www.basecamphq.com/) that's free and you can download and install it on your own server? similar to how wordpress works ?stab in dark

Use Basecamp.
This issues has been discussed at length, both here, and abroad.
The Basecamp alternates blow—sorry, they do.
If Basecamp pricing is more than you want to absorb, try Backpack, which is, basically, a stripped-down smaller version.
Trust me—while "free" is always nice, I strongly recommend shelling-out the $7 per month for a Backpack account.

cheap bastard.
i don't understand why someone wouldn't shell out a small fee (almost the cost of a gallon of gas, or a starbucks drink) monthly to manage your projects - which bring in money.
boggles the mind.

how does basecamp work in terms of clients? do they also need to sign up and pay for accounts in order to assign tasks, or are they strictly read only? I can't find an answer to this seemingly basic question anywhere.
i'm freelance and would like to use something like this to manage all of my clients and projects, but the last thing i want to do ask as them ALL to sign up [and pay] for yet another thing to login to and check all of the time.
so... if i sign up and pay, can i only use basecamp with other basecamp users?
