I've been working with CiviCRM since 2006 or thereabouts. The community is outstanding in providing support and sharing expertise, which combines with a strong product to enable me in turn to deliver better results for the organisations that I work with. I only hope that over time I will be able to repay the debt by supporting other newcomers to CiviCRM.

The community around CiviCRM is international, multicultural, friendly, sometime opinionated but always respectful and welcoming new ideas. It is a real pleasure to interact with these people - but see for yourself: dive in and ask your first question on the forums!

We thoroughly appreciate CiviCRM as a software and this community, and when helping our customers implement and make the best of CiviCRM we are always looking for ways to contribute back.

Still thinking of a deep deep quote. Basically:

It is super important for non-profits, advocacy and related groups to take charge of their destiny. Having control of your data is a good start. The crowd-sourced nature of an open source project in so in line with the co-operation and principles of most non-profits

CiviCRM is a project that strives to make the above possible. It is FREE as in kittens.

Being part of the CiviCRM community is really something to shout about! Not only is CiviCRM an amazing software package, its designed for organisations that make a difference in the world. We help non-profits across the UK gain control of their data through the power of CiviCRM.

It is without a doubt the best piece of software I've ever worked with, and I'm constantly discovering cool new features. More recently I've been working on CiviMobile as part of a project for my course at University. I'm really looking forward to seeing this being used by organisations across the globe.

Hi there

 

Sounds great release but did I do something wrong as this is what I am getting on a fresh install:

Strict warning: Non-static method CRM_Core_Block::setTemplateValues() should not be called statically in CRM_Core_Block::setTemplateValues() (line 587 of /var/www/drupal/sites/all/modules/civicrm/CRM/Core/Block.php).

 

Cheers

Civi includes some code that originated with older versions of PHP. Although the code still works in newer versions of PHP, new PHP installs may (by default) report warnings about old code. To reduce warnings, some have found one or both of these steps help:

1. In php.ini, set "error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT".

2. Avoid PHP 5.4 with Civi <=4.2. (The upcoming Civi 4.3 is being actively tested/developed with PHP 5.4.)
