Jon Stewart of the Daily Show Offered Prestigous "Unlimited Free Passage on the Underground Railroad" certficate
Posted: 11 Apr 2013 - 14:14 GMT by Tom Munnecke

I am so impressed with Jon Stewart's reporting on the VistA, IEHR, and the EHR situation that I've decided to offer him the prestigious "Unlimited Free Passage on the Underground Railroad" certificate. Chuck Hagel was the first recipient of this award in 1982. I don't quite know how to reach him, but I'm sure he follows my blog.

Managing VistA Packages
Posted: 8 Apr 2013 - 14:43 GMT by Christopher.Edwards

This week I've taken a look at getting a patch created for Kernel 8.0's TaskMan component (sub package or module if you will). This patch incorporates changes recommended by Rick Marshall (of VistA Expertise Network and the original author of TaskMan) to remove transaction processing from TaskMan.

DI*22.2*1 SEQ #1 Unit Test Framework
Posted: 5 Apr 2013 - 13:28 GMT by toad

Monday I start work on the first patch we will release for File Manager version 22.2: DI*22.2*1 SEQ #1, Unit Test Framework. This patch will absorb the XTMUNIT and XTMUNIT1 routines within File Manager as new routines DMUNIT and DMUNIT1, and it will modify the existing Fileman unit-test-library routines DMUDIC00, DMUDIQ00, DMUDT000, and DMUDTC00 to call DMUNIT instead of XTMUNIT.
