Crewmate is a project management software, a community fork of Teambox v3, built on Ruby on Rails with a focus on collaboration.
Crewmate workflow is project-centered; each project being visible only to people invited to it. Projects have a status wall, conversations, tasks, shared pages and file uploads. You can even post to everywhere just using email.
Crewmate is open-source software, meaning you can also download it, change its code and host yourself.

Thanks to the many Ruby projects we're using and the Famfamfam icon collection.

- Disabled 'community mode' so you can now create more than one organizations. Every organization may have its own projects (like as in hosted version).
- Implemented authentication via LDAP with automatic account creation. Also fixed "Forgot your password" to work correctly with users authenticated via LDAP.
- Added LDAP support for invitations. When you invite colleague by username and he's known in LDAP, it will automaticaly create user account for him and send e-mail invitation for log-in.
- Changed default time-zone to Prague and first day of week to monday :-)
- Introduced new role named supervisor and ability to create organizations. You can allow creating new organizations only to supervisors (or every user like as before).
- Option to set organization as default for all new users; every newly signed user will be automatically added to all default organizations as participant (i.e. will be able to create new projects).
- Support for Google Analytics tracking.
- Used fixed gem Immortal that works correctly with PostgreSQL etc.
- Fixed OAuth authentication controller for Google (see this page).
- Fixed broken processing of incoming e-mail attachments and multipart messages (thanks to mrtorrent for the first part). Added filter that removes attachments of unwanted MIME type. That's for removing S/MIME signature files which are useless in Teambox.
- Fixed issue with incoming e-mails that contains non-ASCII compatible characters (e.g. Czech diacritic). This charset problem was even with text/plain in UTF-8! Successfully tested: ordinary text/plain email, multipart emails - S/MIME signed, with inline picture, with any attachments and all combinations. I suppose that every e-mail has at least one text/plain part, HTML-only emails doesn't work.
