Reminder there is a developers forum this Thursday at 10am US/Eastern.

The topic will be “[**Project Buendia Round 2 Kickoff**](https://wiki.openmrs.org/x/T4H7Aw).” You may recall that MSF and Google collaborated on a cool OpenMRS-backed system as part of their Ebola response, and we had a Developers Call afterwards where Nick Fortescue talked about their experience of using OpenMRS. Notes from that call here: [https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/RES/2015-05-07+Developers+Forum](https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/RES/2015-05-07+Developers+Forum).

Now they are starting to do further work on the system, for a Nutrition use case, and they want to be better OpenMRS participants while doing the work, since we don’t have the same emergency-response constraints.

Michael mentioned this here:

> Our friends at [Project Buendia](http://projectbuendia.org/), the collaboration between [Google](https://www.google.org/) & [MSF](http://www.msf.org/) that [built a specialized tablet for Ebola](http://www.bbc.com/news/health-31970731) treatment in West Africa (as well as OpenMRS-based software) have recently announced that they’re expanding their project to focus on nutrition in the last quarter of 2015. Article about the new work in Portugese (you may want to use your favorite translation software): [http://info.abril.com.br/noticias/ti/2015/08/google-e-medicos-sem-fronteiras-buscam-programadores-para-projeto-soci…](http://info.abril.com.br/noticias/ti/2015/08/google-e-medicos-sem-fronteiras-buscam-programadores-para-projeto-social-na-africa.shtml)

Please join in, I think you’ll find it very interesting!
