Re: [LUG] proposed conference elsewhere: social software




You may be interested to know that the NHS Information Authority (for whom
I work) are making use of Linux - as a results of my input on a couple of
projects I'm working on. 
Of course I am.  

We have 2 RH 7.2 servers acting as web servers -
other non-M$ stuff includes extensive use of Java from Sun, and I'm just
looking into the feasibility (personally at the moment) of using OOo.

You know I'm off to OSHCA 3   http://www.oshca.org/  at UCLA in a week or so.
I'll talk about the state here and the developments since last year's OSCHA 
sponsored by the NHSIA in London.

In the Practice we have Star Office 5.2 and Open Office 1.01 which seems 
better on Windows than Linux, actually.
We also have a copy of MS Office 97 which my Practice manager likes for Excel.

Given that most of our documents are fairly standardised, most come off an 
application I wrote to produce them rather than a WP, so there is no 
automation involved in the Office suites, but they are handy for tables, 
leaflets and so on.
