<div>You can of course submit code here, I
guess you could create your own project and keep updating that
every time vtiger upgrades, but what I am missing that I have
experienced in other open source projects is the communication
with core developers and the ability to add to current builds, for

I have found the group helpful when I have had issues, but I<br>

How does one "submit code", if I want to push a new feature
into the<br>
system in a manner which is not supported by the current
modular build<br>
for example, surely more needs to be done than just submitting
a patch.<br>
<br>
What it would be great to know is, where is the proper place
for<br>
discussion of bringing new functionality into the base? Is
that simply<br>
down to the guys from <a href="http://vtiger.com" target="_blank">vtiger.com</a>?<br>
