Hello Smalltalkers,
I'm doing a preliminary search for a developer of a brand new SugarCRM like CRM (Customer Relationship Management), based on Aida/Web web framework. What is interesting to mention is that this CRM will be open-sourced from the start and that the developer will work and actively contribute back into Smalltalk and Aida communities while help starting a CRM one too.
Idea is to exploit the Smalltalk and OO features in full to make a really good CRM, with speed, manageability and expandability as main features. CRM will be built with an active help of a company specialized in sales management, using CRM as a tool and have therefore a lot of knowledge in the field. They are already using the open-source SugarCRM derivative vtiger, and they like to continue the open-source tradition, but on a better technology. So, I think Smalltalk in general has a great opportunity here to show what is capable!
Few more info:
- Target Smalltalks: VisualWorks, Gemstone, Squeak - Language: Slovenian preferred, English - Location: Ljubljana, Slovenia - Timeframe: starting 1Q 2008, first version 3Q 2008
If anyone is interested please contact me privately.

Hi Janko,
I would be very interested, but I cannot go to Slovenia (i'm a studient).
So, is there a way to do this job without going to Slovenia (via the web) ?
Regards, Nicolas

This planned CRM project is supposed to be a community project and therefore everyone will be able to contribute. And I can reasonably expect that some of those contributions will be paid too.
But that is a future, while for a start we need a local developer who will become part of team here in the company and where the domain knowledge is just one desk away.
So, everyone interested to work on a project remotely, join the community and (I cannot promise, but you can reasonably expect) you'll have an opportunity to get a paid remote job too.
And that's how other open-source communities are working anyway, as far as I know...
Best regards Janko
