Sometimes I wrestle with how to communicate my feelings on the medical licensing. I view medical licensing as a moral issue. Some proprietary vendors get really offended by this view. Others see my point as I intended it, to place medical licensing in the moral sphere instead of the practical sphere. I recently posted over on GPLMedicine.org comparing the use of GPL Medical software to living off the grid (Mar 7 2025 update. The original article is down, linking to wayback machine instead). Just because we cannot be perfect does not mean the issue is not a "moral" issue.
