Behind the Scenes with Bonita #18 (23 Aug 2010 -> 29 Aug 2010)

Dear community,

We are catching up on the BonitaSoft mug backlog. This week we have 2 winners, nominated by a fellow community member for “actively using Bonita Open Solution, contributing ideas and suggestions to the project, and asking for interesting input.” Nice! Thanks and a wave of a latte-filled BonitaSoft mug to yeti and josevi.

Want to nominate someone for a BonitaSoft mug? Leave a comment or email us.
