We help many not for profits implement CiviCRM through consultancy, training, configuration and custom development. Many of them come from a painful world of old Access databases, multiple spreadsheets and even paper. It's really satisfying to
help people move on with a system that's so much in tune with their own ethics of sharing and collaboration. We also 'eat our own dog food' and use Civi in-house for our client records because we love the flexibility and control it gives us.

For us it's important to share code and advice with other members of the community when we can because we know we get it back in help at other times. The community really is awesome and one of the friendliest and undaunting I've come across. We appreciate the huge value of the software to us and our clients so we try to contribute back and make it even better.

Tech to the People

Over the past 15 years I've been involved in several open source communities.
CiviCRM is without any doubt the one that has the strongest focus in welcoming "newbies" and letting everyone feel at home here. Another impressive feature is the focus on shipping. No matter what you think of CiviCRM today, you are almost sure that there will be a newer and better version in a few months.

I've always been passionate about what non-profits and advocacy groups can achieve using technology. For me, CiviCRM shows an essential example of how non-profit and technology worlds can come together to provide real change - working as community, creating value for yourself, but also for others in non-profit sector.

CiviCRM 4.1 beta 3 released !!!

Submitted by kurund on January 25, 2012 - 02:18

The team is excited to announce the third beta release for 4.1 with support for Drupal 7, Drupal 6, Joomla 1.7/1.6, and the integration with Wordpress 3.3 (wohoooo!!!).

 

Please remember this is a BETA release and it should NOT be used on production sites - however, we  strongly encourage everyone upgrade a copy of your current site(s) on a test server and let us know about any bugs or problems.
 

You can also test drive the release on each platform using the public sandboxes:

Please spend some time running through your critical workflows on these sandboxes, and report any bugs or issues on the release testing forum board.

Here's a quick list of some of the cool new features and improvements in this release:

  • Personal Campaign Pages for events - CRM-8534
  • Scheduled Reminders for Events - CRM-8669
  • Social networking plugins (Facebook "like", Tweet ...) for event and contribution pages - CRM-8737

Step up and help out!

The moment of releasing CiviCRM 4.1beta3 is a great occasion to get involved in CiviCRM community. There are many ways you can help make this release better and bug free.
 

  • Log in to the one of the sandboxes and try out the features you or your clients use regularly. If you find a problem, first check the open issues list on the issue tracker to see if it's already been reported. If not, please report it on the appropriate forum board. Remember that sandbox data is periodically reset.
  • Download the tarball and upgrade a copy of your site to 4.1 - let us know if you encounter any problems. This is an especially valuable contribution since we need to have the upgrade process tested on different sets of data. After you've done this, play around with your favorite features, with your local data. Problems appearing? Use the CiviCRM 4.1 release testing board on the forums to discuss problems and find answers!
     
  • If you're a developer and have PHP skills, we strongly encourage you to develop and attach a code patch AND a unit test along with any bug you report through our issue tracker. Ping us on IRC if you need help figuring out how to do this.

You can download the release from SourceForge - select from the civicrm-latest section. The filenames include the 4.1beta3 labels, e.g. civicrm-4.1beta3-drupal.tar.gz or civicrm-4.1.beta3-joomla.tar.gz or civicrm-4.1.beta3-wordpress.tar.gz. Make sure you're downloading the correct version: for Drupal or Joomla or WordPress.
