It's certainly a learning experience for most involved with the project.Please do try hard working with Debian-Med as much as possible. It'd be a really pityful and tremendous waste of scarce resources to duplicate any work. I could see Medical Ubuntu to provide a) content and b) some sugar fluffing up Debian-Med while Debian-Med itself might focus on a) packaging and b) infrastructure (CDD, med-common, menu structure, package tagging etc).
I might add from my own experience: Starting and maintaining
a project needs time, persistence and patience. You should be
able to give at least three solid reasons to start a new
project instead of joining an existing one and enhancing it
in the direction you want. (No, you do not need to give this
reason here: Just take a piece of paper and a pen and write
down these three reasons that enforce you to maintain
Medical Ubuntu.) If you have no problems to do this than
your project has a chance to be successful.
Kind regards
Andreas.
