Re: Any progress with FIS GT.M?



Hi Andreas,

We have been exchanging ideas with Bhaskar on
how to move forward, and the current plan is to get
together with some of the developers of the upstream 
team by some time in June.  We think that a one-day
hackathon will be enough to put all the pieces together.

We will probably look at more details during
the Vista Community Meeting next week:
http://worldvista.org/Conferences/25th_VistA_Community_Meeting 

We also anticipate a lot of activities in the VistA community
starting by mid-June, in particular, I'm looking at starting to
develop educational materials for using M and VistA as base 
software in Medical Informatics courses. This is a focused
effort on engaging a larger group of young developers, to
become skilled in M and VistA.


We really want to complete the 
fis-gtm Debian package soon        :-)


      Luis
