Dear community:
I am very happy to announce the release of the 4.4 series from the GNU Health Hospital Management Information System (HMIS) component!
The following is a summary of the main new features included in GH 4.4 .
A particular mention to the health_genetics packages because major work and significant improvements have been done for this version.
I've spent quite a bit of time on this to be ready for this new release. I am confident GNU Health genetics functionality can be a valuable tool for genomics and medical genetics, both in research and clinical practice.
The following is a summary of changes in health_genetics and health_genetics_uniprot packages:
The GNUHealth 4.4 will benefit from the stability of using Tryton 6.0! Still, at GH level there are significant changes on the data dictionary and kernel.
As usual:
In addition of the GH HMIS server, we will focus the development in the following areas of the GNU Health ecosystem:
As always, no matter how hard we try to avoid them, there will be bugs, so please test the new system, upgrade process, languages, and give us your feedback via them via health@gnu.org
The community server has been already migrated to 4.4.0, so you just need to download the GNU Health HMIS client.
Happy and Healthy Hacking!

Dear community
GNU Health 4.2.3 patchset has been released !
Priority: High
We provide "patchsets" to stable releases. Patchsets allow applying bug fixes and updates on production systems. Always try to keep your production system up-to-date with the latest patches.
Patches and Patchsets maximize uptime for production systems, and keep your system updated, without the need to do a whole installation.
NOTE: Patchsets are applied on previously installed systems only. For new, fresh installations, download and install the whole tarball (ie, gnuhealth-4.2.3.tar.gz)
Starting GNU Health 3.x series, you can do automatic updates on the GNU Health HMIS kernel and modules using the GNU Health control center program.
Please refer to the administration manual section ( https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/GNU_Health/Control_Center )
The GNU Health control center works on standard installations (those done following the installation manual on wikibooks). Don't use it if you use an alternative method or if your distribution does not follow the GNU Health packaging guidelines.
You must apply previous patchsets before installing this patchset. If your patchset level is 4.2.2, then just follow the general instructions. You can find the patchsets at GNU Health main download site at GNU.org (https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/health/)
In most cases, GNU Health Control center (gnuhealth-control) takes care of applying the patches for you.
Pre-requisites for upgrade to 4.2.3: None
Now follow the general instructions at
https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/GNU_Health/Control_Center
After applying the patches, make a full update of your GNU Health database as explained in the documentation.
When running "gnuhealth-control" for the first time, you will see the following message: "Please restart now the update with the new control center" Please do so. Restart the process and the update will continue.

The REUSE initiative[1] is a Free Software Foundation Europe program that facilitates the documentation of licenses of Libre projects like GNU Health.
After several meetings with our friends from FSFE, we have decided to implement REUSE in all GNUHealth components, that is:
We believe that for large projects like GNUHealth, with multiple files of different kinds (code, graphics, data, ..) REUSE will be a great companion.

Dear friends
These are very sad days for the Free Software and Social Justice movements. Our beloved friend Pedro Francisco has passed away.
Pedro fought relentlessly for equity in our society. He was also a Free/Libre Software activist.
Pedro created and managed MasGNULinux, a Spanish blog with news about Free Software and GNU/Linux. MasGNULinux was the best reference in the latest Free Software projects for the Spanish speaking community.
Thank you for your integrity, your honesty and your dedication to make this world a better place for this and future generations. Pedro's legacy will live on forever, in every line of code of each Free Software project.
From the GNU Health community, we send our deepest condolences to his family and friends.
PS: Rumor has it that God has switched to GNU/Linux.

Dear community
We're very happy to announce the new community server for GNU Health, Thalamus and the GH Federation hub / demo servers!
Thanks to our friends and sponsors from Kontent in Germany (www.kontent.com), the server has now plenty of RAM and resources to meet the requirements of an ever-increasing GNU Health community.
This is a fresh installation with Debian GNU/Linux 11. The host name is the same (federation.gnuhealth.org). The box provides the demo GNU Health Hospital Management System, Thalamus (GH Federation message and authentication server) and the demo for the GH Federation Health and demographics Database.
As we just installed it, please check that all deps are in place and everything goes smoothly :)
Thank you again to Kontent for sponsoring us, and for providing this wonderful service to the GNU Health community!

Dear community:
I am very proud to announce the release of series 4.0 from the GNU Health Hospital Management Information System (HMIS) component!
Thanks to our community, GNU Health is now a leading Hospital Management Information System, with implementations in many countries around the world. The 4.0 series improves the navigation, introduces many more language teams, new packages and much better integration of evaluation, laboratory and Dx Imaging services.
In addition of the GH HMIS server, we will focus the development in the following areas of the GNU Health ecosystem:
The GNU Health Federation integrates information from many health institutions and people from a region or country. The GH Federation portal will allow to manage resources, as well as the main point for *analytics* and *reporting* of massive demographics and epidemiological data generated nationwide. People, health centers and research institutions (eg genomics) can benefit from the GNU Health Federation and the GNU Health ecosystem in general.
As always, no matter how hard we try to avoid them, there will be bugs, so please test the new system, upgrade process, languages, and give us your feedback via them via health@gnu.org
The community server has been already migrated to 4.0.0, so you just need to download the GNU Health HMIS client and enjoy it.
Happy and Healthy Hacking !

Dear all
We're happy to announce that the documentation of Thalamus, the GNU Health Federation message and authentication server, resides now at the GH documentation portal!
https://www.gnuhealth.org/docs
In addition to the portal, we are migrating all the documentation to reStructuredText. Having the documentation in RST format makes it simpler for collaboration. The user will also be able to access it even without Internet connectivity.
MyGNUHealth (Personal Health Record) and Thalamus have been already migrated and translated to different languages (Spanish, German, French). The GH Hospital Management System component is in the process of migration. This requires quite a bit of work, updating the documentation and images from 40+ packages.
At the end we'll have a very nice, structured GNU Health documentation portal!

Dear community
We are very happy to announce MyGNUHealth 1.0.5, the libre, privacy-oriented, Personal Health Record from GNU Health.
This maintenance release contains bug fixes and three new languages for the documentation:
The source English documentation has been revised.
The main package resides at GNU.org, and contains both the source and all the documentation languages.
To save download time and disk space, the packages at the Python Package Index (PyPi) contain only the source English language. You can always download your language(s) pack from GNU.org or read it online at the GNU Health documentation portal (https://www.gnuhealth.org/docs).
Thank you to all contributors, and we hope you enjoy MyGNUHealth as much as we do developing it :)
