Dear Ron, It is critical to WorldVistA's strategy that we offer the VistA community a complete suite of software lifecycle tools, to ensure we can ignite a sustainable, living process for supporting and developing OpenVistA.
We chose NOIS for our work because 1) VistA software experts already know it well, so they can use it efficiently, and 2) it costs us nothing, which fits our budget perfectly.
