!WordPress I volunteer with a community group that uses #Wordpress for its website. So far its approach to Wordpress plugins has been fairly haphazard. Our budget is basically zero. We've ended up using various plugins for User Registration, Access control, Forms, Backup and Restore and other funcitons that are all freemium or cripleware versions of plugins that are really commerical projects by their authors.

On the otherhand we have been looking at running #CiviCRM inside wordpress and that looks to be a powerful, useful tool that's truely community open source.

What other plugins are community groups using that are true community developed opensource projects? I've tried to look through the community plugins directory on Wordpress.org and do some searches but the web is littered with promotional content for commerical 'free' plugins.

I really don't have strong connections to the wordpress community. It woudl be great to connect with other community group volunteers that are involved in Wordpress and get your input and thoughts.
