We are here to help you overcoming the feeling of beeing overwhelmed. > I like, though, that the documentation recommends working > with a mentor when you're new to packaging (which I certainly am :).

This is in fact what we really want to do here. VistA is a real killer application and it would drastically enhance Debian Med so we are really interested. IMHO sharing expertise is the most straightforeward way to go here: We are lacking expertise in GT.M, but we are knowing a lot about packaging - so we try to do our best here. > To let you know where things are, I've tried several times to create an > account at alioth.debian.org, but when I try to confirm the account, it > returns the error message "Error Could Not Get User".

I would recommend to commit your current state of work to svn://svn.debian.org/svn/debian-med/trunk/packages/gtm/trunk (or any better name than gtm according to your own decision - just follow the example of all the other packages there).
