"Also, Does CampCaster handle any billing of
advertising clients that
would like to advertise on our radio station? A billing
module?"
This is definitely something to be added. It would Make
campster ready
to hit the market beside closed-source and commercial
software...
I would be willing to work on a such project but I'm still
trying to
understand how the code works. Adding this feature implies
to modify
the database for sure...
I'm still thinking about the fact that adding a mecanism
allowing you
to "plug" your module into campster - just as you
do with PureData" -
would be nice.

_www.sugarcrm.com

This ease of installation

they will use it.

That is not easy.
