Yes, you can argue about licenses from now until Sunday (in fact today :) I admit arguing about licenses is a bit like a religious argument.

Re: [Hardhats-members] Vista-Office - ..worldvista..openvista...opensource... off-topic eh?
Perhaps I am wrong... wait... I know... hard to believe :) BUT My point about FOIA's freeness is that it is free, not open. That is why people take it modify it and make other products from it. If it where open...it would foster more development. Several people I know are interested in Peds, and Gyne... which are notably absent. Several groups from my understanding have developed peds and gyne. But, have not shared them, simply because they don't have to. Now, if someone else develops peds and shares it to the community with a gpl'd vista then everyone can use it. And, the people who wanted to develop peds, now can focus their energies on other aspects. Let's say then that Kevin writes a completely new imaging system for vista because all the time he would have devoted to replicating a peds module is freed for him to work on imaging. He can horde it, but if he uses the gpl'd vista and the peds module that has been added then he is ethically and legally bound to release it gpl. Kevin's name was chosen at random but, the example wasn't. By saying that people will not use GPL until someone makes a GPL contribution is in my mind the exactly wrong way to look at it. You make it GPL and people will grow it to the point were companies will actually prefer to use a much modified GPLd VistA than the FOIA which of course will still be incorporated into the GPLd product. The idea isn't leading the horse to water and trying to make him drink... It is rather ... you lead the horse to water... there is an overhanging rock formation that nearly bridges the water. The overhang has been built by years of water erosion due to some beavers upstream diverting water into this particular channel. Now... the horse with his MIT doctorate in civil engineering takes leftover wood from the beavers dam building and completes the small portion remaining of this bridge He then claims the bridge is his and requires toll to pass. Oh... and he won't tell you how he made the remaining portion of the bridge. But, you are free to go find your own overhang.. or perhaps just to go hang. Or something like that.

[Hardhats-members] Selling OpenVistA
Not a big deal, but please consider: Whenever I come in contact with health care professionals outside of the VA, and it's seems appropriate, I bring up and explain a little about OpenVistA. I'll give them the URLs for WorldVistA, Hardhats or both. Thing is, it's always on some scrap of paper that I'm sure gets lost. What I was thinking that it might be nice to print out some OpenVistA business cards. They wouldn't have my name on them, just maybe a logo, OpenVistA displayed prominently and the WorldVista and Hardhats URLs. This would seem to me to be much better than scraps of paper to spread the word. If there is interest in this, I would prefer to use an official, standard, design. What I'd really is be able to include some sort of catch phrase, something like Very affordable, very comprehensive healthcare IT. (I feel I need to point out that I wouldn't include open-source in this phrase, it just seems to muddy the waters at first.) And if I was WorldVistA, I'd copyright the phrase. MORE IMPORTANTLY Thinking about that catch phrase got me believing that WorldVistA should produce http://openvista.worldvista.org - a site with the primary purpose of selling OpenVistA. A site that would be designed to grab visitors and pique their interest about the product itself. Something with a screenshot of CPRS prominently displayed. This is the URL I'd like to put on the business cards. And I'm not trying to take away from the WorldVistA and Hardhats Web sites. They of course have plenty of great information on VistA, but you have to go fishing for it.

Re: [Hardhats-members] Selling OpenVistA
I agree wholeheartedly, but I think we need to be sure OpenVistA really is going to continue to belong to WorldVistA first, or replace it with something that we know will. I recently bought the url OpenSourceVistA.net for my home server because I, like you, feel educating people about the meaning of Open Source is important. Once the concept of Open Source is more widely recognized, I am sure the demand will grow for Open Source healthcare solutions and others may see the value of converting their products to Open Source or to joining a great cause.

Re: [Hardhats-members] VistA licensing.
Exactly, it couldn't, but the install routines, the additional modules, the documentation (non-VA) all of that could. My little attempt at getting greek to work even though it isn't much more than a hack and a hack explained to me by others could. And that could aid other Greek or foreign language implementers work on other things that are more important. So, if you use the modules, if you use the routines, if you use gpl software than you should gpl your source. By the way... VistA isn't exactly public domain either, because the VA will not allow external modifications to find it's way back to the codestream. It is a public domain copy. Which you can do with what you want, except alter the original. And, because Vista FOIA is released every so often, that would also have to be incorporated into the GPL modifications... We ( well not me per ce) are kind of doing that now (but without the license)... with viva .x instead of the foia. ... And NO, it isn't a perfect way to do GPL, but I don't really see the Government GPL'ing Vista, so it is up to us to GPL the modifications we make. ... I notice that I use GPL a lot... nothing wrong with the BSD license either... In fact I am even a Berkeley grad.

Re: [Hardhats-members] VistA licensing.
It's the process not the license that really mattersPublic Domain could work just as well as an open source license in providing a collaborative medium if improvements are made available to others via public domainbut IMHO it is naive to expect this to happen given the past 15+ years of experience. It is important to note that we all have come to expect the VA to make its improvements available to everyone via FOIAis it not reasonable to expect others who benefit from the VA's and taxpayer investment in VistA to do the same. If that is not reason enough then let me point out that it is this quid pro quo that fuels a virtuous spiral of improvement that in turn positively impacts health outcomes...this is essentiallly the kind of process that created VistA and has fueled the VA's success in health quality. The fact that we are still chasing the holy grail of integrated EHR's and health information systems outside of the VA is ample proof that the legacy software business models are incapable of spawning this kind of improvement in software.

[Hardhats-members] Re: VistA licensing
LMN was honored to have RMS specifically weigh in on the subject of VistA licensing in November 2000: http://www.linuxmednews.com/974769856/index_html He covered just about everything. Excerpt: I am not a lawyer, but I have spoken extensively with lawyers about copyright questions. Presuming that the VistA software is in the public domain, if you combine it with a GPL-covered program you must release the combination *as a whole* under the GPL. Using the VistA code in this way is allowed because public domain status permits practically anything. However, the specific code that was in the public domain remains in the public domain. In other words, the fact that person A released the VistA code in a GPL-covered combination does not stop person B from using the VistA code in some other way. There's more, so please see the link.

Re: [Hardhats-members] Need help with an input transform.
The input transform is (usually) generated code. Rather than manually set the screen in the input transform, you should specify the screen (e.g., when creating the field) and let Fileman create the input transform for you. Sometimes you need to create your own input transform, but most of the time, you should let Fileman do it for you.

Re: [Hardhats-members] Need help with an input transform.
I should add that Fileman allows you to edit the input transform (and sometimes this is precisely what you need to do), but there's a downside: once the input transform becomes code that you write, Fileman is no longer able to maintain it itself. If at a later time, you need to modify the field definition, you will need to edit the input transform yourself (unless, of course, you want to throw away your changes and go back to a vanilla input transform.)

Rather than manually set the screen in the input transform, you should specify the screen (e.g., when creating the field) and let Fileman create the input transform for you. Sometimes you need to create your own input transform, but most of the time, you should let Fileman do it for you. --- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.

RE: [Hardhats-members] VistA licensing.
I find that the most flexible license is one that doesn't exist - such as Public Domain. One of my favorite little programs is a Photoshop like replacement for Windows called Paint.NET. The license is: Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the Software), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software. By far the most flexible, quickest to read, and easiest to understand. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nancy Anthracite Sent: Sunday, April 24, 2005 9:07 PM To: hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Hardhats-members] VistA licensing.
