CiviCRM Version 5.7 - Candidate for Extended Security Release
Submitted by josh on November 12, 2018 - 13:07The first Wednesday of the month is an important day for the CiviCRM community. It’s the day where a new, scheduled monthly release drops. These normally include bug fixes, minor features changes and improvements. Nothing earth shattering (hopefully). Upgrades are typically routine and easy. For many, this is a fairly painless process to manage, especially as the ease of upgrade and release reliability have improved over the years.
Extended Security Release
The Limes Community and Children's Centre
The client has to provide evaluations on children on 4 scales. The evaluations are qualitative written reports and quantitative points on a 1 to 10 scale.
The client found it difficult to visualise progress on these scales.
Instead of line charts we took the first evaluation as a baseline and superimposed the latest evaluation on a radar chart using d3.js.

CiviCRM Establishment Committee Elections Update
Submitted by josh on October 25, 2018 - 08:07Background
The first annual CiviCRM Governance Summit was held in New Jersey, USA on 25/26 September 2018, attended by 29 people - core team, partners, users and service providers from around the globe.
The major decision of the summit was to create a representative body to help guide the CiviCRM project. An outline of the structure was produced, but there are many details yet to be resolved so the secondary decision was to create an interim committee, called the Establishment Committee, for the purpose of defining the eventual structure.

A Recap of the 2018 CiviCRM Governance Summit & DevCamp
Submitted by josh on October 1, 2018 - 13:40Last 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. This post is a recap of much of the work that took place at the summit.
