It will. I guess, hope, whatever.

Nothing against Windows. It's the old game of someone has to do it. We all 
know this. I know some day someone will write it because it scratches their 
itch. I can only speak for myself but why should I care more about Windows 
users than about Linux users if my boxes run Linux. So from my point of view 
there is no preference. It just so happens that most development is done on 
Linux.

For me personally this is not important at all. Maybe it will matter to 
someone else and this someone else will write an easy to install GNUmed 
installer. He or she can ask for help on the list and will get all the help I 
can provide to either Linux or Windows or Mac programmers. No more no less.
But you knew that.

StarMoney can be used if you need an alternative. It works without BTX. At 
least for us. I have never tried GNUcash but apparently kmymoney can be used 
for online banking.

Huh, no! Unless I am totally mistaken.

So will GNUmed.

Absolutely. Maybe a job for GNUmed Services Corp .....
Oh that would be me. Hopefully there are some more.

Hmm. It should not but that depends on your skill. See I lack the skills. But 
I don't consider myself target audience. I f I need to talk to the backend I 
use the middleware. If it lacks features I complain about it on the list.
If you really understand the GNUmed bacend I guess you already have the skills 
needed.

Thanks for the input.
