There is also the under-construction case tracker module. CVS-only,  
see the README: http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/drupal/contributions/ 
modules/casetracker/README.txt?rev=1.3&view=markup

But, you can roll your own by using CCK (not flexinode). It includes  
a node-to-node relation field. So, you could create a "project"  
content type and "task".

But, especially for the fairly complex stuff that you want out of  
"real" project management, you probably want more control over custom  
views etc. than you can get out of a CCK plus Views module  
combo....although you can probably get pretty far.

Cheers,
