Manifesto Compliance Plan

Values

MyGNUHealth is a Libre application that puts the person in control of her health. It is part of the GNU Health ecosystem, a social project that uses technology to deliver freedom and equity in healthcare.

Open Governance

The development of MyGNUHealth is open to any organization or individual. We believe that the great projects are the result of the interaction and feedback of many actors.

Free Software

All components in the GNU Health ecosystem are Free / Libre software. MyGNUHealth allows you to download, view the source code, customize it to meet your needs and contribute those improvements back to the community.

Inclusivity

Anyone, from any background, can contribute to MyGNUHealth. GNU Health benefits today from a large international, multi-cultural and trans-disciplinary community.

Innovation

GNU Health combines Social Medicine with state-of-the-art technology. In the case of MyGNUHealth, it makes use of Qt and the Kirigami framework. MyGNUHealth is a convergent application, that is, it adapts very well to desktop and mobile devices, providing a great user experience.

MyGNUHealth integration with the GH Federation allows the person / patient to be part of the system of health, and share information in realtime with her health professionals. This also provides timely and updated demographic and epidemiological information to the public health system, to proactively work on health promotion and disease prevention at both individual and population levels.

Common Ownership

MyGNUHealth is a Libre application by the community and for the community. Its GPL license guarantees that it will be always that way.

Happy to get contributions from the KDE community.

End-User Focus

MyGNUHealth is a Personal Health Record application. It is focused on the individual. It is designed to provide the best experience for the user. It must be easy to use for the non-technical user, yet, solid in terms of security and privacy.

Incubating

Status	Description	Notes
IN PROGRESS	Repository and code available	https://invent.kde.org/apol/mygnuhealth/ needs to move to playground
IN PROGRESS	Communication channels available	There's mailing lists in GNU. We need to see where to move exactly. Having a matrix channel in KDE infra would make sense. Will link the Telegram channel to make it public.
DONE	Website available	There's just a global GNU Health website. It could make sense to have an own website under kde.org but they seem like different beasts.
DONE	Active community	Luis is very active and has done most of the work. We could use more people.
IN PROGRESS	l10n infrastructure integration	Will reach out to our experts what is the right way of doing so
DONE	Manifesto compliance	Can't see any big stoppers
