It's been a few months in coming, but this is the latest and greatest release of the Project Importer. This one is a minor release but has some nifty new functionality.
Release Notes:
- Fixed an issue with the task_type which was only being set consistently for dynamic tasks. This would cause some tasks not to display in the Project View.
- If you attempt to import a project and there is already one with an identical name, the Importer will automatically delete the existing tasks and import the new tasks into the existing project. A warning will appear to the user during the preview stage.Fixed the parent/child relationship error. In the v1.5 release, a bug was introduced which could cause parent/child relationships to be lost.
And the most interesting part of all is that this is the last planned version for dotProject. All future releases - including the support for additional import options - will support web2project exclusively. Which you can get from SVN right now...
Version 2.1 of the Project Importer can be downloaded here.









web2project
I've just started evaluating FOSS project management software, and the timing may allow us to jump straight into web2project instead of going with dotProject.
Does this version of the importer allow importing to web2project, or does it only work with dotProject?
I know web2project is based in dotProject, but I don't know if there are any data model changes that might prevent it working?
Thanks

Keep an eye out on next Tuesday. All will be answered. ;)

Project Importer install Issue
This one was determined to be an issue with the decompressing of the file, not an issue with the Project Importer. Mike's installation appears to be fully functional now.
