 The Debian-Med project presents packages that are associated with medicine, pre-clinical research, and life science. Its developments are mostly focused on three areas for the moment: medical practice, imaging and bioinformatics. \\ \\
 Over the previous years, several initiatives have spawned that address the scientific disciplines like chemistry or bioinformatics. Debian-Med is not a competition to these efforts but a platform to present the packages to the community as a Custom Debian Distribution.
 \section{How to Contribute}
-From the developer to the user, there is a long chain of tasks in which we always welcome participation. First we must keep ourselves informed about the software landscape in biology and medicine. Software to be packaged is chosen according to criteria such as users' need and the consistency of the distribution. Once in Debian, the software is monitored for its quality and bugs are fixed, if possible in collaboration with the upstream maintainer(s). All this work would not be very useful if it remains confidential. We also dedicate some time to advertise it to the world via \url{http://www.debian.org} and to ease the integration of new members through this wiki. \\ \\

 Please contact us on \href{mailto:debian-med at lists.debian.org}{debian-med at lists.debian.org} if you want to help to make medical and biological software available to Debian users. Read the \textbf{Membership} section if you're interested in joining us. \\ \\
 If you speak a language other than English, you can contribute rightaway with translations of package descriptions at \url{http://ddtp.debian.org}. When working on these, you will find immediate targets for improvements of the original English versions, too. For these, though, you need access to Debian-Med's source code repository. Very welcome are tutorials that guide Debian users towards the use of packages to their immediate benefit. You may also consider to write respective articles for Magazines, be they online or in print.
