A technique is provided for managing a project schedule for a development
project based on the aggregation of individual task schedules, where the
individual task schedules are updated based on inspection results from
two or more inspectors specified to inspect a project task product. The
schedules, and consequently the updates thereof, are governed by a policy
specifying that a task cannot be partially completed. The inspection
results are linked to the individual task schedules, which are linked to
the associated project schedule.Another technique is provided, for
managing project files over a network. Acceptance of a project proposal
triggers the creation of individual sites for each individual specified
to contribute to the project, where individual task schedules and draft
project files can be linked to the individual site. Furthermore, the
individual sites are linked to a project site and associated file
directories are created and also linked to the project site.
