GNU BIS releases a free, open source, web based Contact Relationship 
Management application.

The CRM market is expected to hit $17.7 billion by 2006, growing at an 
average annual rate of 6.7 percent, according to a new report by 
Aberdeen Group. The CRM spending by small and medium-size businesses is 
expected to exceed that of larger enterprises.

While traditional proprietary software vendors are expected to come out 
with subscription models, the new system by GNU BIS is available under 
the GNU GPL licence, offering freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, 
change and improve the software.

"Everyone is free to build upon this project, in the same way we did 
with other open source projects, like Linux, Apache, PostgreSQL and 
Perl" says Nelson Ferraz, the project's main developer.

Users are free to redistribute copies, either with or without 
modifications, either gratis or charging a fee for distribution, to 
anyone anywhere.

More information can be found at SourceForge.

Thanks in advance,
