Ah, Redmine! I totally forgot about that Rails app.  We were, for about four
months, using Redmine as our main project management system in my business.
We had migrated over from Trac which was not fitting our needs.  While
Redmine had some awesome features and it was working pretty well for us, it
had a lot of excess built right in.  I do not know exactly what was causing
it, but either Redmine and/or Ruby on Rails was not working as it should,
and I often found myself having to fix Redmine so we could continue to log
in and use it.  After four months we migrated to Collabtiv, which was much
smaller in terms of built in features, but suited us a little better.  We
used that up until we split, and now I don't really use any yet.

If we were to go this route, I'd vote for Collabtiv unless we find something
better.
