    It appears this "open source" project is not so open: ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Re: PrimaCare Source Date: Friday 14 January 2005 02:28 am From: PCDOM To: Rod Roark Hi Rod, Currently we make PrimaCare available, including its source codes only to GPs in Malaysia only. The reason is because of the contract with the Government of Malaysia who funded the project. Thank you for your interest in PrimaCare but I suspect that it would not be very useful outside the Malaysian Healthcare system, because it was developed specifically for the local doctors.
