 * If you know a Free Software project that might be useful for health care in any aspect and is not yet listed in our [[http://debian-med.alioth.debian.org/tasks/|task list]] just inform us by writing an e-mail to our [[http://lists.debian.org/debian-med|mailing list]]. For instance you might compare our tasks with URLs like

 and tell us, which project is missing on our tasks pages and we should add that.
 * If you have some language skills you can help to translate package descriptions for the packages we maintain in Debian. To do this go to our [[http://debian-med.alioth.debian.org/ddtp.php|translation status page]] and pick a project you would like to translate. Translation marked by a red "x" are not yet available. Click on the package you might like to translate the description and then pick your language. Alternatively you might like to visit the [[http://debian-med.alioth.debian.org/tasks/|task list]] and watch out for yellow buttons in the right column of metainformation which ask for translating the description.
