Is it a proof that it respects the guiding principle of the FSF. Let's not
forget that GNU Health is a project supported by GNU. Even Tryton is not hosted
on this platform. Is it not strange?We are living in a world where a number of
people are just "blind" followers. This is one of the reason history repeats
itself.

1/ On the GNU Health community-It consists of thousands if not of tens
thousands of dedicated people. Most of them will not express themselves in this
mailing list. -Currently, most major languages are available.- OpenSuse just
joined our community.
2/Bugs-I have implemented GNU Health in the African rain forest. I can testify
that it is very very robust (GU Health, Tryton, PostgreSQL, etc.), . Luis and
the major developers react very fast. Just think of the time some of the
biggest global software companies took to fix their product and paid with
customer's money).
- Is it Perfect?
It is off course far from perfect. Like any human creation, it should be
improved and I am glad that you are part of our team.

Don't worry, Luis is not alone. I don't think that his intention is to
"save"the world. Others did try and failed. Luis is making a tremendous
contribution to improving the life of the privileged by helping getting access
to basic healthcare via GNU Health. In our materialistic world, there are just
a few people in this world who can dedicate their time, their money, their
whole life for such a noble cause. Our community is very grateful to all those
who contribute to this great project
3/ Final thoughtsGNU Health is much more than code. I'll end with a quote from
Rabelais, a French writer. He wrote this a few centuries ago:
"science sans conscience n'est que ruine de l'âme" "science without conscience
is but the ruin of the soul"
Let's join our efforts and support this great project.
Kind regards,Armand
