Having Dcm4chee _properly_ packaged for Debian would be a great step forward. Since we now do have Orthanc the need for Dcm4chee is not as pressing anymore. I do remember inofficial Debian packages for it which could help to get started (or not). Unmaintained, closed-source libraries are quite an obstacle for a proper package. Sun JDK vs OpenJDK is a lesser worry in that context. MoMing is a really good idea. Karsten -- GPG key ID E4071346 @ eu.pool.sks-keyservers.net E167 67FD A291 2BEA 73BD 4537 78B9 A9F9 E407 1346
