Drupal-Native CRM

pwolanin's picture

A new group was proposed as below - rather than splitting efforts, let's broaden this group to cover Drupal-native CRM as well.

Drupal-Native CRM
Description: Designing and developing basic CRM functionality with pure Drupal (i.e. w/o Civi, Salesforce, Sugar, etc.)

One upshot of the CiviCRM BoF at DrupalCon DC '09 was the discovery of some common interest in developing basic, lightweight CRM functionality from existing Drupal modules and new modules adhering to Drupal architectural patterns. The intention is not necessarily to duplicate existing third-party software like CiviCRM and Salesforce, but to create a simpler option, more closely integrated into Drupal CMS, for smaller-scale CRM applications that don't require the complexity of a dedicated CRM platform.

Nice! I like the sounds of it.

What did the discussion at DrupalCon DC consist of? Is there headway being made already?

Curious to know if this is something that is seriously on-going or if it needs a kick-start with a certain project goal (or goals) in mind and/or some sponsorship.

Thanks!
