As many of you know Medsphere continues to sue the Shreeves. Interestingly Medsphere has also released some of the code that the Shreeves originally put on sourceforge. This puts the community in an interesting position. Should we collaborate with Medsphere as they continue to attack community members? (Besides the Shreeves, the lawsuit names anonymous sourceforge downloaders as defendants) How can we encourage Medsphere in this release, (which is a good thing) while discouraging them from suing their own developers?
I have asked the Hardhats community to participate in a poll regarding this issue. Now I would like to expand on this poll to the larger FOSS medical community. If you go to GPLmedicine.org you will find several polls at the bottom right of the page. The questions are meant to determine exactly what the community thinks about this issue. Again here is the link: http://www.gplmedicine.org I will not keep the polls up forever, so make your voice heard now!!
