I've been waiting for the update to activeCollab. The last beta (alpha) of the "then free" project was a solid alternative to Basecamp. They've been undergoing closed revisions and modifications for quite some time, and it was clear that they were moving at least in part to a paid business model. However, it seems from the latest pricing information that activeCollab has moved entirely to a paid model (or will move when it is finally released). That is unfortunate. I'm all for having paid options, but having a free alternative for "non-commercial" use would have been great. Perhaps it will still happen.
I did see in the comments, that ProjectPier seems to have forked the open source activeCollab and continues to develop that option. I also happened to stumble upon OpenGoo which was using activeCollab (and now will use ProjectPier). OpenGoo looks to attempt to be an open source version of Google Docs and other services. That will be interesting to keep an eye on.
