Dear Mr Sukhdev Singh, Your presentation is an excellent invitation to the digital world of medical information. Opening it to others for re-use is an act that deserves appreciation.As well, your focus on free information is really appreciative. It is heard that there are some others who conduct seminars in the name of free software like greenstone, dspace etc and propagate private interests. It is a glad news that you speak about open knowledge and practice it as well. Please upload such presentations in future too.
