I went to visit a local (to me) historic site recently, Cumbernauld House . This house has been sitting since 1731 and is on the site of a castle which goes back centuries before that. When I went along I realised the house had fallen on hard times. A...
Blackbaud Netcommunity version 6.15 has just gone into a controlled release phase and is almost ready to hit the streets. This is a major step on for us at Blackbaud as it is the first version that is running on our new Infinity platform . I thought today...
