Not if they are intended to serve as documentation. I agree with Jim
it can be useful to place a hint "you probably need to modify this for
real use" inside the documentation. IMO it should be self-evident but
oh well.

No. The jar is a stroke/heart attack risk calculator and is
called from within GNUmed like any other external program.

There's menu help strings and some strings in the config item but
that's it.

"free-to-use"

you'd have to get into contact with www.arriba-hausarzt.de but I doubt
it for the time being
This definitely belongs into /usr/local/bin.

No problem with that. Do whatever Debian requires of you.

Feel free to do whatever Debian requires you to do. I should think
they belong into /usr/local/bin/ or else need a man page along with
gm-install_arriba.

A user may want to download ATC and/or LOINC data files.
