Re: [Hardhats-members] HUI OPENVISTA VERSION 3.0 RELEASED TO WORLDVISTA
I haven't seen much comment on this Hui release. How does it relate WorldVista releases? And doesn't anyone know about the improved install/config process?

In a technology transfer initiative, the Hui released the software upgrade to WorldVistA for use as a baseline in developing OpenVista 4.0. The Hui development team made several key enhancements to Hui OpenVista - most notably a more streamlined configuration process. Release 3.0 provides a preconfigured baseline system that simplifies the steps needed to convert the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) version of VistA to OpenVista. This enables users to quickly download the baseline as a starting point for configuring the system to their specific requirements. OpenVista, a non-proprietary, open-source healthcare information system, is based on the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) enterprise-wide VistA system. WorldVistA, a not-for-profit organization of VistA developers, plans to conduct validation testing of Hui OpenVista 3.0 before distributing OpenVista 4.0 to test sites next month. The Hui initially funded and managed the development and release of OpenVista in collaboration with WorldVistA to enable non-VA hospitals and healthcare providers throughout the Pacific to implement a healthcare information system free of licensing costs. Release 3.0 provides a preconfigured baseline system using the March 2004 VistA FOIA with selected VA patches (through January 2005) applied to the system's core modules, including the Kernel, Scheduling, Outpatient Pharmacy, Order Entry, Laboratory, Text Integration Utility and RPC broker. In addition, the Outpatient Pharmacy database has been populated with a minimum subset of current drugs and matched to the Orderable Item and Order Quick View files. At the April VistA Community Meeting in Boston, Massachusetts, WorldVistA stepped forward to serve as gatekeeper and configuration manager for all future releases of OpenVista software. In May, the Hui transferred the Hui OpenVista technology to WorldVistA. As a result, Hui OpenVista 3.0 will not be available as a separate release from the Hui web site. This represents a significant step forward in the transfer of VistA technology as an enterprise solution for hospitals and clinics outside of the VA, said Pacific Telehealth Technology Hui Director Stanley M. Saiki, Jr., M.D. Since its release in 2003, interest in Hui OpenVista has grown substantially spurring the economic development needed to support the increased demand for affordable healthcare information systems. Since the initial release of Hui OpenVistaTM in June 2003 nearly 2000 downloads of the software have been licensed and executed from the Hui web site ( www.pacifichui.org http://www.pacifichui.org/ ) by healthcare, software development and medical research organizations. The Pacific Telehealth Technology Hui was formed in 1999 under joint agreement with the DoD Pacific Regional Medical Command at Tripler Army Medical Center and the Veterans Affairs Pacific Islands Health Care System in Honolulu, and the encouragement and support of U.S. Senator Daniel K. Inouye. The DoD/VA joint venture serves as a healthcare research and application development center for developing telemedicine and technology programs that support the healthcare needs of federal beneficiaries in the Pacific region. The Hui is headquartered at Tripler Army Medical Center in the VA Spark Matsunaga Medical Center in Honolulu.

Well, I looked on the worldvista site at Sourceforge for this release. Is it available yet? What will it be named when it does surface?
