forward for Wikimedia to turn away from it's reliance on open source

group of people with no community or Board consultation about possible
alternatives.
So, I'm asking if people can suggest to Brad some open source (fully
open source, not "can be open source if you don't need the security
package") CRM software
(

no doubt that people on this list have contacts in the free/OS
software world, so I'm hoping you can now use those contacts to help
with this.

There's several Web based CRM solutions that are open sourced - we use
one at solera -- however, MS has some good windows stuff as well. I'll
dig into the versions and post where we got it from. It's ok for folks
to use whatever they like, and not all open source apps are up standards
or are secure.
