The aim of the workshop is to provide a meetingplace for developers and 
users of open source products in health care. The workshop will be 
conzeptualized as an event that allows the active participation of the 
delegates. By submitting a paper you additionally have the opportunity 
to promote your open source product and let the audience participate in 
your experience in the open source in health care sector.
If your not able to submit a paper due to the short time frame you may 
profit from the workshop by actively participating in the discussion 
sessions and the market place for devfelopers/users that we are planing
