Referring to the previous post (https://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=903407), the download count was calculated wrongly. An older release was deleted, so the download count for that release was not added.

The actual count is 324 as on today (2nd Jan 2009), which brings the average to more than 150 per month since launch. This metric can be seen at 'Usage Statistics For PDPM' page https://sourceforge.net/project/stats/index.php?group_id=238009&ugn=pdpm&type=&mode=60day... read more

A few users have identified an issue with PDPM when PC is hibernated (instead of shutdown).

New Beta 2.1 Version of PDPM, open source time tracking and productivity tool, is now released.

In this version support to generate reports of previous day has been added. This happens when the system is shutdown in the evening and report does not get generated automatically. So when you switch on the system the next day morning, the previous day's report is generated.
