Hi Edmundo,

Congratulations on your achievements, as well.  I’m wondering which version of Care2x you installed and if you are using XAMPP, a LAMP or a WAMP.  The characteristics of the computer network would also be interesting to know.

Also, please let us know if you have modified any part of the Care2x code (as I believe some of the code is still php3) and, if so, if you have documented those changes so that the community can benefit from your updates.

All the very best,

Daniel

Elpidio and All,

 

We thank you about Care2x. Today we are install Care2x in the Maternidade Cândida Vargas, João Pessoa, Brasil. This woman and childreen hospital has 149 beds, here 700 child are born each month. We are very glad to use Care2X.

Hi Anthony,

whether you decide to fork or not to fork, the care2x will stay as a
project.
We have been laboring on this for a long time.

If you think you can develop a better project in this scale, nobody can
stop you
from doing so. In fact I will give you a tip: developers will join you
"only" if they
see that you can create something feasible to back up your talk.

Developers are intelligent people (in fact very intelligent), they will
see through
you very quickly. Do not fall into the wrong assumption that starting
an open-source
project (even those you only fork) is easy. It is not. If you had the
impression that
care2x project was easy, it was only because a lot of people have
labored to
make it easy "for you". Like for example: a guy is now struggling and
fighting
with a hosting company to repair everything to its previous status while
you are sitting
in front of your computer waiting for something to happen.

If we dont know what amount of work is being done behind a seemingly
"easy" project, it is
easy to make the mistake of adding insult to injury.

Good luck in your new endeavor.

Elpidio
