David,

I did apply for a PFHSE grant, but AFAIK I'm not directly involved in funding the Borg. <g>

anyone know about this????

David,

Apart from the inaccuracies in the article (e.g., running VistA on an open
source implementation of Mumps is "theoretically possible") the article
reminds me of a similar article I once read about the AAFP and the impending
arrival of an open source EHR solution.


Speaking of recent trade press, I'm also enjoying the current FCW coverage
on open source.

I like the "Resistance is Futile" headline, but as I recall the terrorist
hive that made that claim in Star Trek was unsuccessful in several attempts.
