[March 10, 2000] "The ProjectManagement schema defines a main document element named 'ProjectManagementSchema'. The XML schema is of interest to software applications with a focus on the exchange of standard project management data such as cost, schedule, and resource information.

[March 10, 2000] The development effort lead by Pacific Edge Software Inc. toward the creation of a 'Project Management XML Schema' has now been joined by several other industry partners. In January, the initiative was launched with the development of an Extensible Markup Language (XML) schema for the project management industry. The schema was described as relevant to "software applications having a focus on the exchange of standard project management data such as cost, schedule and resource information...the published schema represents the complete set of project information most commonly used by project management applications and most critical to an accurate exchange of project status between two software systems." Pacific Edge has now announced that "industry leaders including eProject.com, Great Plains, Onyx Software, PlanView, Primavera Systems, and Welcom have joined Pacific Edge Software to define the XML (Extensible Markup Language) schema for project management. The flexible, business-to-business schema will enable intelligent project data exchange between an organization's information systems. The coalition of collaboration technology, e-business solutions, customer relationship management (CRM), project management, workforce management and PKM companies will work together to forge an open industry standard by making modifications, extensions and enhancements to Pacific Edge Software's XML schema for project management. eProject.com, Great Plains, Onyx Software, PlanView, Primavera Systems and Welcom will work with Pacific Edge Software to update the Project Management XML schema on a regular basis. The schema and its source can be viewed at www.biztalk.org and http://www.pacificedge.com/xml. [...] Pacific Edge Software Inc. is a leading provider of project knowledge management solutions for project-driven organizations. The company's Project Office suite is a collaborative approach to the collection and distribution of project knowledge that everyone in an organization will use every day."
