Beging part of the open source community behind Collabtive, I'm happy to release a version with much more security features and less vulnerabilities. Can't overestimate this stuff in times like these...

On a lighter note: I implemented the new color scheme with the grey and green shades. Normally I write code, but design also intrigues me. Do you like the Spring theme? Anything I could do better next time?

Just submitted a pull request for Collabtive (pm tool): it's both available for self-hosting (FOSS) or reasonably-priced SAAS. We'll see if the request is accepted. :)

I clicked the "Work Wear" category link, but it just links to the homepage. If there's no content in this section yet, you should remove the picture & link in order not to unnecessarily distract from the real content. Otherwise you should fix the link.

I am female and I like the styles! :) (...not a prospective customer though, since not based in your target countries...)

Is it just me, or does the article hardly tell anything about "the Berlin startup scene"?

Maybe I missed the info, but does it work for a whole website or only 1 subsite?

SendOwl does, too.

No PayPal payments accepted though, which is a showstopper for a lot of users.

From their website (http://getdpd.com/plans-and-pricing/): "What types of payment do you accept?

We accept Visa, Mastercard, and American Express. At this time we only accept payments online so we will not be able to accept a P.O., invoice you, or take an order over the phone."

Can you tell us the name of your company and the field you are/were in?

I totally agree: PM tools are useful in general, and the more the tool's feature set aligns with your individual needs, the better. Hence it makes sense to have a modular PM tool.

As one of the lead developers of Collabtive ( http://collabtive.o-dyn.de/ ), I think we did something right: Collabtive itself is a basic PM software - very accessible, simple to use.

When your company and your projects grow, you can add modules like a Gantt chart and project templates as you go. This way the software will adapt to your growing need for overview and division of work.

Your're right. The logistics sector however is not among those few.

There is no such thing as a "minimum wage" in Germany - at least not yet.

Yes, they will.

In this case I probably should consider myself happy: I'm on the developer team of Collabtive, a free open source Basecamp alternative, i.e. a project management software.

In fact it is very easy to use our own product not only for project management in the strict sense of the term, but also for bug tracking, file storage and distribution and community management.

Besides it being useful for us, we have already been able to put a lot of our own requirements into the published version.

At least SourceForge still offers a download option for the hosted projects, unlike Google Code...

I did, but I studied bioinformatics... ;-)

I think so with Ableton, but know nothing about the guys at SoundCloud.

In Germany companies just like it that way. I don't know why.

Oh well, that was 20 years ago...

Open source experience is great, when applying for a job at a startup! I think you will have good chances.

DON'T put a picture on your CV in GERMANY and it directly goes into the bin. :)

Cover letters are not all that important here in Germany.

Your CV matters a lot more, according to my experience, but it should be no longer than 1-2 pages.

Projects are what matters, so show them the code (e.g. with a GitHub profile).

You won the challenge with 10667 points against 8845.

Seems like you missed see the "Brisbane Whale Tours" ad...? ;-)

I think they just said that she didn't have any... There is a book, which explains that Sandeman made her that way to give her immunity against a toxine, which will pollute earth's atmosphere when a certain asteroid passes very near.

This course will not help autodidacts, since a BS is required for enrolling.

There's already at least one "beautiful self-hosted Basecamp alternative" out there: Collabtive

...and it's free (FOSS).

Badly written article, lacking improtant facts and misrepresenting things (e.g. there is not just Telekom in Germany...) just to finally go all alarmist. :/

The German government DOES understand this and has already announced to Telekom that they will thoroughly investigate the plans, implying that they may find a way to prevent this.

Actually sapphire is NOT "the hardest natural substance after diamond". Moissanite seems to be. It has a hardness of 9.5/10 (sapphire: 9/10) and occurs naturally, but can also be produced technically.

I don't know, but you can buy men-made Moissanite (silicon carbide), which is superior to diamond in every category except for hardness: it's only the second hardest rock in the known universe!
