Hi

Are there any deployment frameworks available for Microsoft Dynamics
CRM 4.0? For example a framework would aid the automated deployment of
PlugIns, Customisations and Reports from one CRM environment to
another. Ideally the framework would be config file driven and would
provide logs and notifications.

Is there anything out there like this? Both free and commercial
packages will be considered.

Thanks,
TJ

Anyone? A Google search returns nothing. Looks like I will be starting
from scratch.

Thanks for the comments.

I found 'Crm Solution Installer Framework' on codeplex. It is very
preliminary work so I am unsure if it is suitable for the enterprise
environment I am dealing with. But I will consider it further.

I had a look on the addonnice website but couldn't see anything. In
fact the menu bars did not work properly under IE7 (the 'More on' menu
drops behind the white frame and you can't click it).

Thanks for information, it has been corrected short time after you post, it
was related to a Telerik upgrade urgently fixed :)
