Additional Feature in this Release 

Last week, stakeholders from the CiviCRM community came together to discuss issues of governance and sustainability, and to review recent developments in CiviCRM as well as how it’s managed. We called it a Governance Summit because there was a lot of interest in governance. Regardless, this was fundamentally a “Community Summit” where members of the community could work together to improve CiviCRM as a whole.

Cividesk is offering the Essentials of CiviVolunteer training session this Friday, October 5th at 9 am MT/ 10 am CT/ 11 am ET.  This 2-hour live training session will cover all you need to know to successfully manage and track volunteers in CiviCRM.

We are looking forward to the next CiviCamp in the UK! With only a few days to go we thought you might be interested to hear which sessions we’ve got lined up. If you’ve not booked on, there are still a few places so please get in soon.

We’ve been busy in the background confirming sessions and making sure everything is in place for a great day. For those planning travel or needing information about the venue, you can check out the information here:

We’re continuing to use Gitlab (https://lab.civicrm.org/explore/groups) more and more as both a project management and development tool. One area that we’ve been tinkering with over the past several months is using Gitlab for feature requests in CiviCRM. As you can imagine, there’s real potential here to empower the CiviCRM community to create, discuss and promote new features and functionality in CiviCRM.

The recent DevCamp in New Jersey presented several sessions on new developments in CiviCRM land as well as showcased several of its inner workings. One session presented by Core Team member Tim Otten stood out for me: Form Builder.

CiviCRM-Anwender, -Implementierer und -Interessierte zusammenbringen: Das ist das Ziel der CiviCamps, die von der CiviCRM-Community auf der ganzen Welt veranstaltet werden.

Das „CiviCamp“ ist eine ganztägige Konferenz mit zwei parallelen Vortragsreihen: Eine Reihe mit Vorträgen für Leute, die sich für CiviCRM interessieren oder es auch bereits selber verwenden. Und eine andere Reihe für Leute, die schon viel über CiviCRM wissen, und jetzt noch mehr lernen möchten. – über die neuesten Entwicklungen und Extensions, und raffinierte Lösungsansätze für alltägliche Probleme.

If you missed the Cividesk online training course, the Fundamentals of Membership Management in August, we have scheduled another session for this Tuesday, October 2nd from 9 to 11 am am MT.  This informative course covers all the basics of managing memberships and will help you get off to a great start using CiviMember.

As our North American colleagues (and those who have made the big trip over there) head into the governance sprint now seems like a good time to recap on product maintenance in CiviCRM. Product maintenance, as I discuss, is the monthly routine processes we do to incorporate patches & contributions into the CiviCRM product.

Join Cividesk on Wednesday, September 26th at 9 am PT/ 10 am MT/ 11 am CT/ 12 pm ET for this informative 2 hour online session that will cover best practices for organizing membership renewals in CiviCRM.  This class is recommended as the next step in your CiviCRM training for those who have taken the "Fundamentals of Membership Management" session.
