I am glad you brought  this up. This is exactly what Karsten and me have been 
talking about all along. This company actually benefits from GNUmed and 
hundreds more projects / programs that lack billing. Just as they lack 
everything besides billing.

Kepp the connection alive. We can work with them. Sure , in the beginning the 
don't feel comfotable to change any of their code just so. As time passes 
they will learn that this actually is an opportunity for them and will be 
asking how to connect. We will happily tell them. Once we have worked with 
one company it's easier to talk to other companies.

The theory is simple. Let's see how it works out.
