Would you have produced any (even crude) introductory or background
description for the minister to consider? I was hoping / thinking it
could be the kind of thing worth sharing around further as my own
region is in the early stages of working on secure messaging.
Could not find much about wagtail. Is it a larger project i.e. beyond
yourselves? Other than wagtail birds and cleaning supplies, all I
could find was an audio encoding project

maybe bears a relation to BAE Systems being the" design authority
for... existing fielded, Australian tactical communications equipment
including RAVEN and WAGTAIL combat net radio"

Both Syan and me are currently active with "wagtail". It has highest priority
for a reason: Australia is sitting on the fence between open and proprietary
lock in situation for clinical secure messaging. A few companies hoping for
lucrative customer lock-in contracts from the government are lobbying away,
and the health minister is hellbound at making the final decision this very
year.
Tony Lemke, Syan, and I are trying to produce something workable soon as
possible; something we can demonstrate that it *works* as a free and
standards respecting alternative to costly lock in. Needless to say, the
secure messaging application can certainly be integrated into gnumed and will
be useful there too.
