This is sad news. I was in on the initial implementation of the Lab Force LIS at Ochsner in New Orleans so many years ago. It was a very fun, challenging project - and I'm proud to see that the product has held out so well after all this time.
Glenn Luedke is a very good friend of mine, even though we haven't worked together in years. he was my first boss/PM at Lab Force in 1985 (dating myself now). The last time we worked together was around 2000. I hope he is doing well.

Just FYI, Yesterday, Ochsner Health System (8 hospital plus ~40 clinics covering from New Orleans to Baton Rouge, LA.) announced that the in-house maintained Laboratory Information System will be replaced with SoftLab from Soft Computer Corp (softcomputer.com). The in-house system was originally a Pr1me then PI-Open, then Ardent to IBM to Rocket UniVerse system. The source was licensed from LabForce some 20 years ago and maintained and further enhanced in-house with things like automated faxing, connections to PHP/Apache, MS-SQL & Sybase, some GUI (where it made sense), etc. Looks like I'll be moving into the Oracle on AIX world here shortly...
