Use a blog. I have been meaning to write an article about this. I worked at IBM and got to see firsthand (watching the Lotus Notes team) how large teams interact, which was especially fascinating given that their objective was to create a platform that would facilitate team interaction. As I see it, the blogform makes great groupware:

1. A post is a project. A team leader defines the project in a post and this can of course be shared by everyone on the team.

2. You can easily install the script on an intranet, if you don't want general access.

3. The comments system can be used to provide a dialog mechanism between team members and creates the record.

4. WP and the other good scripts (like TXTP) have rights management capabilities to allow for different levels of involvement.

5. Changes and comments can trigger contact events to team members.

6. When the project is concluded, you have a nice record of what was done by whom.

7. TXTP (for one) allows files to be associated with posts and easily linked to, in accordance with access level (via PW, or basic visibility, etc).

8. C'est freeeee!
