CPAL, i.e. just marginally 'open'. Still better than IBM's 'open' Symphony.

Microsoft Project to get open source competition

| Projity, which has been selling its project management software in the form 
| of Software as a Service (SaaS), will launch an open source version at 
| LinuxWorld next week, under the name OpenProj.  
|
| [...]
|
| In addition to a Linux version, there will be Macintosh and Windows versions 
| of the software as well. 
|
| [...]
|
| Talks are also underway with OpenOffice about integration with that suite, 
| and the current version already reads Microsoft Project files. 
|
| O’Brien believes the latest version of Microsoft Office leaves Big Green 
| vulnerable to this kind of open source attack.
