Compiere hires a community relations manager
Back in October, LWN wrote about Compiere's difficulties in its relationship with its development community. Compiere Inc. has now announced the hiring of Dawn Foster (or "Geekygirl Dawn Foster" on her weblog) as "director of community and partner programs." "
Foster will serve as a liaison between Compiere and the open source community to ensure the company is effectively communicating with the community, while encouraging community contributions to the Compiere ERP & CRM project. She will also be responsible for managing Compieres recently expanded partner program and relationships with Compiere partners, many of whom are active participants in Compieres open source community."
