Getting Things Done with PHP
An web application called GTD-PHP has been released. It is a Getting Things Done (GTD) personal organization system, web based and written in PHP and MySQL. If you have your own personal web server, this maybe a good app for you.
I haven’t personally try this utility yet. The interface are not attractive, but it seems it got most of the required features for Getting Things Done methodology. It would be great to hear from anyone who has tested this app.

I installed in on my website. Had to do a little tinkering (I’m not a coder, btw, just a good googler).
The database name created by my web server cannot be just ‘gtd’, but wasn’t hard to accomodate this change. Just need to change in the config.php and makegtd.sql files.
I did struggle with changing some syntax in the makegtd.sql file work with my version of SQL: Changed last line of each table script to read as such for SQL 4.0.16:
TYPE=MyISAM CHARACTER SET latin1;

My issue with all of these web-based GTD tools is that, unless you’re using some sort of WAMP (or LAMP) local server, they force you to be online.
While not necessarily a big issue, nowadays, it can becomeone if you’re forced offline.

Pretty cool idea. I might just set up an apache server for one.

Follow-up: I wrote a blog post about how I installed the GTD-php program on my hosted web server:

really cool software. easy to install and allows me to be x-platform - and get my wife to buy into GTD cult
i know this starts taking away from the simplicity of it, but a calendar add-on would be nice in the future.

We’re at version 0.7… with active development and quarterly releases. It’s nothing like 0.2– and getting better by the day!
