Hi Jeff,
Have you tried Google docs? I'm not sure how it goes with multiple people accessing simultaneously, but it certainly has potential for collaboration across continents and internationally.

Thanks.

I use and like Google Docs, but for this project we need something like Microsoft Project (or other formal "project management" software), that multiple people can access over the Internet. I know that Zoho offers such a product, and we're now taking a look at it. But we're also looking for other suggestions as well!

dotProject and phProjekt are free and open source project managers. I also think the courseware Moodle might be effectively adapted for such use. Again, it is free and open source.

There are others. Here is a page that compares several packages that is written by yet another project manager called Project-Open.
