Although not a ChMS, I'm anxiously waiting to hear more about 37Signal's Sunrise CRM. It just may have a lot of what I'm looking for in a CRM.
I'm also still holding out a little hope that someone will jump onto Microsoft's CRM and build a church-oriented package. Of course, the cost of entry would be pretty steep. Update: see PacMan
Yes,
ChurchLedger.com
And I've started a conversation at http://oschurch.blogspot.com/2007/09/church-management-and-website-content.html
It would be great to have you join the conversation.
