I agree, we can have more than one mobile environment, but at the
moment Mohamed has volunteered to do the development in Android, so I
am very happy and grateful.

That does not mean that we can have one in QT and another in HTML5 .
Actually, it would be great ! I believe all will have pros and cons.

What I have proposed is to do a POC on vital signs recording. From
there we can probably reach an agreement on putting the focus in one to
make it the "official" app for GNU Health, but it could be also that we
could share the three of them.

Best,
