Open ERP - various news - events - plugins - next release

First the Tiny partners event has been rescheduled  to March 25.

Before that, there will be a community event open to all interested parties.

From what I understand this will correspond to the next release (at least announcements) - either 5.2 or 6.0?

I also got a contact with Axelor the new commercial plugins will be officially released and available for purchase end of this month.

There are 3 plugins :
 
Outlook : Sync of calendar, contact and tasks + possibility to link messages to OpenERP objects - like a contract...

Word :  Mail merge with objects.
 
Excel - Business intelligence.

The plugins will be sold either separately or in a bundle per pack of 10 / 20 or 50 licences with an included subscription and e-mail support.

The price information I got seems affordable to me (but I don't want to publish it before they do), there will be a free evaluation version.

Open ERP Outlook plugin

A new plugin is now released and here is the link. http://www.axelor.com/fr/produits/openerp-oocrm/outlook.html. I tried to install it unfortunately it does not work... and I could not find a way to save the settings.

So no major progress on that one.

Also, Axelor again annouces its Word plugin but no spec, download or price.

Plenty of good ideas there but...
