Understood.  That's what attracted me to OFBiz in the first  
place...their treatment of relationships in the schema supporting the  
"Party Manager" seems excellent.  Plus the fact that if fundraising  
were layered on their infrastructure, it would -- because of their  
database design -- connect to contact management, workflow management,  
and the (planned) GL system almost automatically.

A couple of other things you might like (just in case you're not  
already familiar with them) from the "market research" side are:
