The CiviCRM community is a great place for support, to exchange ideas and to contribute back. Working with other developers or users has often allowed me to pool our resources together and lower our costs, while ensuring better quality since there were more people using it.

We needed a CRM, found CiviCRM and fell in love with it :). We're starting with 4.3, we hope we can be of some help for future updates.

City Bible Forum
City Bible Forum is an Australian not-for-profit Christian organisation. We need to communicate effectively with our constituents, and CiviCRM gives us a comprehensive set of tools for managing relationships. Interestingly, we often find that new features are being added just as our need for those features is becoming apparent. It's the right fit for us.

I have consistently found the CiviCRM community to be welcoming, inclusive and supportive, and this has inspired me to want to become a part of it. It is great that the open source community allows everyone to benefit from the contributions that each of us is able to make, and I am making my own contributions as I can.
As a software product, CiviCRM is powerful, versatile and extensible and is enjoying active development and growth by the community that uses it.

I find the engagement with our community of users to be intellectually stimulating
and rewarding. Seeing folks with expertise in a particular area step up and contribute their time and ideas to help improve the product is quite exciting. Every time I hear about a new interesting organization starting to use CiviCRM, I get a renewed sense of excitement about our work. The range of civic sector organizations currently using the software is quite amazing to me - from large international advocacy organizations to local performing arts troupes. I also really enjoy interacting with our international community - building friendships and getting to share culture (food, music, humor ....) with colleagues on every continent.

Nice
Would we able to set a relationship in backend event setup that wasn't exposed to the entry form, or would this require some work our end?
For example, we run the entry systems for sporting events. It's be great if when a person was entering a team of cyclists into one of our cycling events that the relationship of "Team mate" would automatically be created.

You would need to use
You would need to use PhpMyAdmin (or similar tool) to update the configuration table to use the "team mate" relationship.
Can tweak the table fine, can
Can tweak the table fine, can it be turned on and off per event?
Thanks for the module, will enhance our "R" :)
Without registering the parent?
So far the big limitation has been in the schema - the "registered by" participant field is a FK to another participant ID, not a contact ID. This effectively prevents you from registering someone else without registering yourself for the same event. Sorry mom, you have to go to camp too!
Phase 2
Hi Owen,
JMA Consulting implemented this for Pogstone with a design that will allow any number of contacts and relationships between them to be specified (see http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRM/Enhanced+Event+Registration+Extension).
Currently there is no UI for specifying other sets of contacts and relationships, which is part of a currently unfunded phase 2. However, anyone comfortable in MySQL should be able to set up records in the extension's custom tables for this and the code should handle it. Well, there may need to be a tweak or two to ensure that it is generalized a bit more from Sarah's use case (eg we are doing special processing for second parent contact to determine if they should get a spouse of relationship and a is member of household relationship).
The Extension will posted shortly at https://github.com/JMAConsulting/biz.jmaconsulting.module.EnhancedEventReg.

I was thrilled to learn about
I was thrilled to learn about this extension after trying to work a similar arrangement over several days.
I am using Wordpress, and did have some trouble with the live links, however -- though this may be a problem with any extension and not specific to this one.
Whenever a live link was clicked on, it would generate an Internal Server error 500. The reason for this was because the plugin code was firing before some of the wordpress code. The fix was to place the following line at the top of both php files:
include_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-includes/pluggable.php');
Thanks for a great extension!
Oh, I did have one question.
Oh, I did have one question. I do see all all the parent and guardian profiles listed, but how do I gain access to the Child profiles in order to add information? I would like to add Birth Date/Gender and possibly Height/Weight fields
Any help appreciated! Thanks
