JMA Consulting is pleased to welcome Jon Goldberg as our new Director of Operations effective today.
Last week we had a fourth sprint to improve CiviCRM performance at the socialist party.
LYRIC is a small non-profit that is entirely managed by volunteer attorneys. Our mission is to teach youth how to safely exercise their Constitutional rights, and we do so by connecting with schools and community organizations and training volunteer attorneys to teach our curriculum to high schools students.
cv (https://github.com/civicrm/cv) and civix (https://github.com/totten/civix) are Unix/CLI tools for developers. cv provides access to your Civi site on the command line, and civix generates skeletal code for new extensions.
Over at the Extensions Working Group, we’re making careful progress toward improvements to the extension ecosystem, aiming to make it easier for all of us to do what we want with extensions: End users and site admins: easier to find, select, and install the right extension; Extension developers: easier to publish extensions and set clearer expectations for support and maintenance, and easier to avoid duplicating existing extensions; Community volunteers: easier to conduct extension reviews and help them get qualified for automated distribution.
As an early step in those improvements, I’d like to point you to the relatively new Extensions Lifecycle documentation, which describes the process of publishing extensions through the CiviCRM ecosystem, along with clear definitions of concepts like stewardship (who’s managing this extension?), project maturity (exactly what is meant by saying an extension is “experimental” or “stable”?), and more.Last week we had our third sprint at the socialist party to improve the performance. In the previous blogs I have explained what we have done so far. You can read them here and here.
I am interested in connecting with other users of CiviGrant. The Stack Exchange is great for specific questions, but I'd also like to: - Share real-life examples of CiviGrant use (such as customizations and online grant application processes). - Explore groups' interest in a Make-It-Happen campaign or other cost-sharing to improve CiviGrant and other components/extensions useful to grantmaking organizations.
This little story about financial transactions has a couple of objectives: 1. share what we want to do for the benefit of each and everyone 2. find out if there are more organisations out there that would be interested 3. even better, organisations out there that want to co-fund and influence! If you are interested and want to co-contribute, drop either Björn (endres@systopia.de) or me (erik.hommel@civicoop.org) a mail!
All sites are strongly encouraged to upgrade to the latest secure versions of CiviCRM: v4.7.14 and v4.6.24.
