Dear Care2x-L Developers First of all, let us introduce ourselves: My name is Daniel Fink and I am the spokesman from a brazilian project aimed to develop and localize a brazilian version of Care2x; please refer to http://www.linuxmednews.com/linuxmednews/1098358110/index_html Professor Dario Azevedo ([email protected] ) from PUCRS (www.pucrs.br) is the coordinator of this project and together with a private company (Alfamais - www.alfamais.com ) have agreed on a partnership and got governmental funds to develop this brazilian version of Care2x. Our team is ready and has just started this job; as expected we are facing some of the same difficulties you listed in a discussion list before. We are sure that the needs for a free-software HIS in Latin America must be shared and developed among all the countries. So we are introducing ourselves looking for sinergy in those developments, so we can share our problems and solutions improving the capabilities of our teams, towards the best possible solutions. If this seems in accordance to your projects, please let me know, so we can begin our informations exchange right away. I am looking forward to hearing from you Sincerely Daniel Fink [email protected]
