Dear All, I feel that many realised the importance and necessity of CRM here in OSGeo.
So, if anybody could lead and volunteer for CRM selecting, setting-up and managing, that will be really appreciated. Board could provide necessary resources, I believe. Past FOSS4G attendees, FOSS4G and OSGeo sponsors are the main customers we should manage.
