Hello Brian, hello Andreas, I have had inquiries by interested German doctors on how they can "obtain" a version of, say, GNUMed to try out on their machines at home. To date I have had to tell them: "Go grab the source."
A Debian-med distro will make such things a lot easier. May I suggest the following: For some projects it may be possible to create ISO images with the following properties: - Put it in a running machine and it starts a front end that connects to sample backends on the internet/started from this CD. - Put it in a booting machine and a minimalistic X-based Linux environment shows up running a demo version of the application in question. Now I know that this might very well eat up some serious resources but I thought I'd mention it anyway. For some projects it may not even be technically possible (You did notice that I never said that a project would _install_ itself onto the host machine ? Temporary files and necessary temporary path tweaks et al on the host system are, of course, OK.)
