GNUmed 1.2.0 released

Hello all,

I am glad to be able to announce the immediate availability
of the GNUmed 1.2.0 Feature Release.


Downloads available from:

        http://www.gnumed.de/downloads/client/1.2/
        http://www.gnumed.de/downloads/server/v17/


Client installation:

 Easily installable packages for your platform of choice
 will be available shortly.

 Meanwhile you can run the client from a downloaded tarball
 or use the net based client installer:

        http://www.gnumed.de/downloads/client/gm-install_client_locally.sh

 which you need to download, make executable, and run.

 More information available here:

        http://wiki.gnumed.de/bin/view/Gnumed/InstallerGuideHomeShort


Database installation / upgrade:

 Note that this release, as usual, DOES require a database
 upgrade from v16 to v17 if you already have a database and
 wish to retain the patient data you documented therein. For
 uprading you can use the script provided in the tarball:

        .../server/bootstrap/upgrade-db.sh 16 17

 Alternatively, you can use the network upgrader:

        http://www.gnumed.de/downloads/server/net_upgrade-gnumed_server.sh

 which you need to download, make executable and run.

 If you wish to install a fresh database (without upgrading
 an existing one) you can use the install script:

        .../server/bootstrap/bootstrap-latest.sh

 or, again, the network based installer:

        http://www.gnumed.de/downloads/server/net_install-gnumed_server.sh

 Note that both ways WILL DELETE existing databases !
