 Debian Med project serves to recruit talented new developers into the
 Debian fold.
 
-\DebianMed to some extend works as the missing link between the
-developers of Free Software in medicine (in Debian slang `upstream') and
-the end user (as receiving end of the software.)  It drastically
-decreases the effort of installation on a system (by so called
-metapackages - if you install such a metapackage you get all relevant
-software from a specific subfield.)  We try to care about security
-problems and bugfixes and quite frequently we support upstream with
-patches to enhance their software.  Because of this we have established
-a quite good connection to the authors of the software in our focus and
-thus try to help forming a large community around the universe of Free
-Software of medicine - on a solid and well known technical basis as the
-Debian distribution.
+\DebianMed to a certain extend serves as a missing link between the
+developers of Free Software medical applications (in Debian slang
+`upstream') and the end users who install them.  The project's efforts
+significantly ease the task of software installation on a user's system
+by creating 'metapackages', or names in the Debian software packaging
+system which denote collections of software that are commonly used
+together to accomplish a given sort of task---medical tasks, in this
+case.  We attend to security problems and bugfixes and quite frequently
+we support upstream developers with patches to enhance their software.
+Because of this we have established rather good connections with the
+authors of the software in our area and encourage the formation of a
+large community around the Free Software universe of medical resources
+-- on the solid and well known technical basis of the Debian
+distribution.
 
 Once the \DebianMed idea is explained this way and people got the idea
 they usually start dreaming:  Oh, that's nice I could start to work on
