One reason for sticking to wxWindows.

Did you know that one of the (main?) contributers to wxWindows and the 
developer of wxDesigner (Robert Roebling) is a medical doctor as well?
Not a bad combination I would say.  

Have you ever thought of running GNUmed on an IPAQ or Zaurus or tablet-PC like 
the Siemens SIMPad ? Well , in this case wxWindows is not a bad chioce. Just 
check out wxEmbedded and find out that it would just be a matter of 
cross-compiling for GPE. http://gpe.handhelds.org/

I might add that a qt-version could be run on OPIE ( 
http://opie.handhelds.org/) but from what I read on the net there definetely 
are licensing issues.

Let me check if the Leipzig heart centre is willing to let us use their 
facility. They have a very well equipped lecture hall with huge screens and 
networked seats. It all depends on what amount of money they want. 
Alternatively they have a couple of meeting rooms although I dont know 
anything about Internet connectivity in these rooms. 

They have guest (not patient ;-) ) housing as well which is around 20-30 Euro 
per night ( I think). I will talk to them and find out if we can come up with 
some kind of sponsorship.

Please visit http://www.gnumed.de for updates. There will be an initial 
announcement within the next few hours.

Best regards,
Sebastian
