GNUmed 1.8.0rc1 Prerelease

Hello all,

I am glad to be able to announce the immediate availability
of the GNUmed 1.8.0rc1 Prerelease.


Downloads available from:

	http://www.gnumed.de/downloads/client/1.8/


This is a special release in the following respects:

	1.8 does NOT need a new database over 1.7 !

		Yes, you can (and must) run it against your existing
		v22 database. This will NOT change over the lifetime
		of any future 1.8 releases.

	1.8 requires Python 3.

		Debian $> apt install python3

		Look for packages for your distribution.

		Windows/Mac: https://www.python.org/downloads/

	1.8 requires wxPython 4.

		Debian $> apt install python3-wxgtk4.0

		Look for packages for your distribution.

		Windows/Mac: https://wxpython.org/pages/downloads/index.html

You can use a mix of 1.8 and 1.7 clients against the same
databse in parallel. This is the whole point of this release:
Enable users to get their python3/wxpython4 installations all
set up and possibly find any remaining bugs (I have run this
code in production without issues for several MONTHS).


Database upgrade (existing DB):

	Not needed (see above).


Database installation (new DB):

 If you wish to install a fresh database (either if you do
 not yet have a database or if you want to ignore and
 OVERWRITE any existing GNUmed databases) you have several
 options all of which WILL DELETE existing databases !

 Your platform may provide new server packages in which
 case you can likely use the systemwide install script:

	$> gm-bootstrap_server

 If you are installing from a server tarball you can use the
 script provided in the download:

	$> cd .../server/bootstrap/
	$> ./boostrap-latest.sh

 or, again, the network based installer:

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