[Gnumed-devel] Status of 0.8

[Karsten Hilbert]

Hello all !

I am planning on uploading 0.7.7 with the latest bug fixes on Friday or
Saturday:

   FIX: DOB could become today in certain corner cases when creating new person 
[thanks S.Reus] 
   FIX: check_drug_interactions() failed with FreeDIAMS [thanks J.Busser] 
   FIX: be more careful around changing CWD when creating document from LaTeX 
[thanks S.Hilbert] 

There`s two more I haven´t checked in yet. With 0.7 we`ll have a pretty
solid candidate for Debian Stable.

Regarding 0.8 I am currently tying up loose ends and implementing a
few oversights (say, some buttons not connected yet in the vaccination
edit area).

I would encourage everyone to start testing 0.8 which can be downloaded
as the master branch from gitorious.org. Of particular interest is
testing of anything new including vaccination handling:

  NEW: Add button to lookup drug on www.dosing.de to current substances plugin. 
   NEW: hook: "after_soap_modified" 
   NEW: placeholder: "current_meds_table::latex"

   NEW: score: Cincinatti Stroke Scale (F.A.S.T.)
