As I mentioned, I fully support your work on Calindori, and that is the
application I am working to integrate with MyGNUHealth.

I find Calindori a great piece of software, and I can see a lot of time
and effort has been put into it. It's convergent, simple -yet powerful-,
and beautiful.

So, I think we should support your fantastic work. I certainly will.

All the best
