As part of the release, the ubuntu package has been completely refactored to work with the new ubuntu package gui. This ubuntu package is really cool and can do the following:
1. Install a new instance of OpenEMR
2. Upgrade OpenEMR that was installed by the previous ubuntu packages
3. Upgrade OpenEMR that was installed without the ubuntu package (note OpenEMR needs to be previously installed in the /var/www/openemr directory)
That would be awesome; just need to ensure that it will be permanent (and assurance it will remain a free service). When have time, will configure the demo with this.

It is Free and Permanent. That’s the whole idea.
If users want customized features like private branding, Voice response systems, credit card processing et cetera we do that for a fee because the respective vendors do.
I’d like to thank Andrew Dyer for contributing some cool new stuff to the Appliance package (a new introduction screen, new backup script, installation instructions for VirtualBox, and miscellaneous manual clarifications). His new introduction screen simply put a big smile on my face, which can be seen beow:
This stuff is all run through API’s within OpenEMR, so is nice to demonstrate what can be done. However, this portal by Z&H is a third party demo(so pretty much impossible to make it vendor neutral), so I tried to make this very clear. Was hoping to get the communities feedback/thoughts on the current layout of this demo page (ie. is this ok or should the third party stuff like this get relegated to another page or does it have no place on the wiki etc.): http://open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/OpenEMR_Version_4.1.0_Demo
