[Kde-pim] ISV/ISD success story: GNUmed

Hi folks,

this just came in on the GNUmed developer mailing list

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnumed-devel/2007-09/msg00012.html

This kind of integration has been on their wishlist for quite some time.
I talked about this with Karten Hilbert, another GNUmed developer, on a Linux 
event (Chemnitzer Linuxtage), as it looked like it could be an interesting 
idea for Google Summer of Code.
Karsten did a requirements list for this: http://tinyurl.com/3ynulg
(IMHO not enough for a GSoC project, but things like this could probably be 
expanded to fit GSoC requirements)

Since they are also looking for providing the same features on Windows, we 
might have an opportunity for further collaboration post 4.0 release.

IMHO the nice thing about having another free software project as an ISV is 
that neither side has any policies restricting communication between 
engineers, something most of the proprietary ISVs have, which is why they 
only tell you "APIs not good enough" instead of what exactly they are looking 
for,

Cheers,
Kevin
