<OT> CRM/ERP

[Zbigniew Koziol]

I use sugarcrm from home. Or rather I started to use it. It will not do 
everything you want but might be useful. Its installation is not quite 
trivial. They would simply rather want to ask for their support. There 
are some licensing restrictions. I do not know yet well how good it is 
or much about its functionality. Simply learn gradually how to use it, 
when a need exists. One thing I am missing there is faxing from within 
application. There is a good chance that in some future will try to 
create this myself, based on mgetty+sendfax/vocp.
