By mid-2009 a dedicated group of workers had created a solidly functioning set of installers for WorldVistA EHR. Here is an explanation from the president of WoldVistA:

The official web site for WorldVistA EHR is the WorldVistA web site

The distribution point for WorldVistA EHR is Source Forge

and the WorldVistA web site points you to the Source Forge site.

Built on the release of WorldVistA EHR from Source Forge are distributions of repackaged software, sometimes with enhancements. Ignacio's Astronaut packages are an example. By way of analogy, the WorldVistA EHR distributions are like Linux kernels from http://kernel.org whereas the redistributions are like GNU/Linux distributions from Debian, Red Hat, Ubuntu, etc.

New releases of WorldVistA EHR will appear on Source Forge, and will be announced on hardhats, as well as elsewhere.
