I generally do not take credit for much but this one I will. I started that list about a year ago to help me deal with organizing the vast number of OS health care projects out there for research that I was doing. While the research only concerned a small area of the healthcare universe there was no central location to find OS healthcare software packages other then google which isnt all that helpful , hence the list.
I am certainly pleased that people are finding it useful and correcting all of my atrocious spelling errors and continuing to update and mange it in a collaborative way. The thing to remember is to make sure you tell everyone in the field about it so it can continue to grow a catalog whats out there. It's still the first place I go and look for healthcare related os projects before I hit up google. Rob Dingwell Sr Software Engineer MITRE Corp.
