I. Valdes writes, “March 30th is Linux Medical News 2nd birthday. 430 articles have been posted since the first article on March 30th, 2000.

Considerable progress toward these goals have been made in these two short years. If large scale events such as the now commonplace embrace of free and open source software by the likes of IBM, Sun Microsystems and Wall Street continues, then the possibility of a free and open source medical software industry being born is high. Linux Medical News will continue to be honored to be a chronicler and participant in these transforming events.Complete story.”
