[sudo-discuss] looking for alternative to sudo humans for membership management

[Charley Sheets]

CiviCRM is a large, unwieldy PHP app that acts as an add-on to a more mainstream CMS such as WordPress. I hope there’s something better suited to our needs. 

I hadn’t heard of odoo before, but it seems there’s a “community edition” we could play around with to see if it’s any good. 

I’m happy to look at other alternatives as well as giving humans one more try if there’s others who are interested in participating.

Sudo-humans is still missing some very basic must-have features (like notifying anyone that someone's credit card is bouncing, or that a new member signed up!), and  the code seems fairly unmaintainable now that the initial author has left...
