And it all began like normal Barcamp (like any other non-conference). As we all know, most of the developers are nocturnal, yet again CodeCampMumbai was no exception and started off schedule.
I am here with one of my colleagues(Deepak) to work on Facebook plugin for CiviCRM. Some initial specs on this feature: Facebook Integration
Other interesting projects include lighting up bulb using web interface(PHP), Mapping and Adding Events on Google Map.

We will also be reviewing CiviCRM architecture from the point of view of component developers - using specifications for a potential new component as a springboard.
We just updated the CiviCRM 2.0 wiki page with the release schedule. The wiki page has details on the features and changes coming in v2.0. v2.0 will ONLY support PHP5.2+, MySQL 5.0.x+ (later releases only), Drupal 6+ and Joomla 1.5+.

The Conservation Fund is the nation's foremost environmental nonprofit dedicated to protecting America's most important landscapes and waterways for future generations.
