Jon Stahl at OneNorthwest would be the person to talk to about
Salesforce. I know that they have been rolling out non profit

(Or I can chip in in a pinch on ONE/Northwest's work integrating
Plone & Salesforce.com)

Is there are a good "end user case study" of salesforce.com
integrated with Plone ? Is any non-profit on this list using this
integration ? How is it going ?
At present, there is no "end user case study" that talks about
integrating a Plone site with Salesforce.com. That's because in the
interest of "eating-one's-own-dogfood", we haven't used any of the
tools on our client organizations and are just beginning to use them
on ourselves. Someday there may be a nice report.
There is a list and Google group dedicated to that very subject
though. If anyone here is interested, I'd invite you to join in the
disscussion.
It's at:

At present, we're using PayPal's Instant Payment Notification to
create a lead object. This is unreleased, but we've been using it
for several months:

We're also testing and waiting to deploy a custom adapter for
PloneFormGen that puts the results directly into a chosen Salesforce
object type. This is in 1.0 rc 1 stage (help us test so the final is
solid!) and can be found at:
http://plone.org/products/salesforcepfgadapter
There are other things in the works, which will see the light of day,
hopefully soon, and custom applications can be written using the
approach described here:

using-salesforce-com-as-a-content-catalog
Hope this helps you get a sense for what's currently possible.
