I have selected this extension to review because the description looked really cool! So it made me curious.

More information on the extension is here : http://civicrm.org/extensions/google-apps-sync. The module has been developed by Nicolas Ganivet from Cividesk. I have reviewed version 1.0 of the extension.

So here is the first one, review of an extension! I have selected this one because we recently used it in a project and expect to use if many times in the future. Each review subject can score a maximum of 5 stars (brilliant) and a minimum of 1 star (not very nice). We thought a review should be easy to read and concise, so we decided we limit ourselves to max 3-5 sentences per subject.

At CiviCon London 2014 the topic of extensions came up in a couple of conversations. Should some extensions be part of core, how do we deal with really good extensions and really bad ones, should we show how many times an extension is downloaded etc. Jaap Jansma and me discussed some more with Lobo on IRC and we decided that we would start with extension reviews. We feel that the extension mechanism is really cool and helps us a lot as developers and as users.

This blogpost about our way to finish CiviCRM Hungarian transaltion work. The transaltion started two times earlier and reached 15% level. During half year effort we could finish it, using Transifex webtool. Best what happend from finish date, some Hungarian cilvil organizations started their CiviCRM projects. 

So I though I'd share a personal experience that reminded me of what Open Source, and therefore CiviCRM, means to me. Over the past year or so a lot of conversations have been taking place about the direction of CiviCRM, how we should fund the project to ensure its sustainability etc. More recently the partner program has come about and we've all been drawn into the mya that comes with it, thinking about the bigger picture. Why mya you may ask?
