I tested it. Maybe in Debian uno.py is found automatically . i.e. in 
PYTHONPATH. On SUSE it is not.

For SUSE I have to add /usr/lib/ooo-2.0/program to $PYTHONPATH in 
gm-from-cvs.sh

I updated my database from v6 to v7 without any glitches.

I chose correspondence from GNUmed's menu and whoa it opens OOO. But it seems 
I have no template. How do I get one into the database. I didn't understand 
the instructions in the new created ooo document.

Do we need some kind to plugin for template handling or is this overkill ?

Despite a growing number of people on the Wiki the vocal GNUmed community 
seems rather quiet for the moment. Let's see if letter writing from GNUmed 
(or Forms handling ) will do anything about that.
