The community of developers and implementers is proud to announce the 4.2.10 LTS release of CiviCRM. LTS stands for "long term support" and the purpose of this release is three fold:
1. To provide bug and security fixes to those who are not ready to upgrade to CiviCRM 4.3 just yet
In New Zealand workplaces it's common to see a sign in the smoko* room saying "Your mother doesn't live here - do your own dishes".
People tend to follow this instruction as longs as:
a) there is not already a pile of dirty dishes next to the sink
b) and they can see where to wash the dishes, and where to put them afterwards.
c) their colleagues aren't setting a bad example.
Howdy partners!
Even though London has become hotter then the face of the sun over the past few days we've been busy beavering away on an update to the UK Gift Aid module to support compatability for Civi v4.3 and to add some new and exciting features.
Well this is my first post on the CivCRM Blog and I am very honoured to have been given the privilege by David Greenberg. We are a CRM consulting company - meaning that we provide consulting and advice to companies who require a CRM system or who have a CRM system in place but want to know how to use it to its full capacity.
If you use the Drupal Webform-CiviCRM Integration module, pay attention for a sec, you're going to want to know this:
With the 4.3 upgrade, the Progressive Technology Project has made a number of important steps toward breaking out our work into pieces that others can use on their sites. This blog will begin a series of (hopefully) weekly blogs outlining new functionality that others can use.
This month's CiviCRM London Meetup will be on Wednesday 31st July, at Red Gallery (corner of Rivington Street and Shoreditch).

We recently had a client using Rajesh's civicrm_offline_recurring_payment module, but they were wanting to also upgrade their CMS to Drupal 7, so we've put together an extension version which should now support any of the CMSes supported by Civi. You can install it via the Manage Extensions page, and it supports versions 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 at the current time of writing.
CiviCRM comes with a convenient mechanism for handling postal greetings. However, it turns out this mechanism in its current form doesn't adequately cover greeting conventions in many non-English-speaking parts of the world. We are working on a couple of enhancements in CiviCRM to improve this situation.
