This week Nedjo Rogers and Rosemary Mann join me to talk about their Open Outreach distribution.

Here's what we talked about

• What is open outreach?
• Why did you decide to create Open Outreach? (was it a personal need? client need?)
• What does Open Outreach do?
• What are some of the features included?
  • http://openoutreach.org/features
  • Are these using the apps model or another?
• Who is contributing to Open Outreach?
• How can groups get Open Outreach?

Use Cases

• Who is Open Outreach aimed at?
• What are some current projects and focuses?

What’s in the future?

• CRM functionality
• Compare External (CiviCRM) and internal (custom)

Questions from Twitter:

• @tgroff: What are the benefits/differences between using http://drupal.org/project/debut_member vs. CiviCRM roles sync?
• @tgroff: Does http://drupal.org/project/debut_member provide membership renewal, expiration, or renewal reminders?
• @tgroff: Mostly like to know more about the "debut" modules. ex: can I just install http://drupal.org/project/debut_bio on any site and use it? etc
