  1. Project Libre has superseded OpenProj and claims Project 2010 compatibility.

    http://www.projectlibre.org/ is the homepage

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenProj#Fork_-_ProjectLibre gives some history on how OpenProj forked to give rise to Project Libre.

  2. Try MPP Viewer. It works great.

  3. OpenProj does work. You'll be able to print an MPP file to a printer or PDF from there. For unconfidential project files you may also find the online converter sites useful.

  4. I do not think there is an open source viewer on the market. But if you need a viewer to open all versions, you can try the Light version of MOOS Project Viewer. This one is free but limited in functionality. The full version has more features.

  5. You can use Project Viewer or MOOS Project Viewer. Both based on Java so it support multi-platform.
