  2. http://www.bahmni.org is where you can download it and learn more about it.

Bahmni is an EMR + Hospital Information System, built as a distribution of OpenMRS.

The EMR web application for Bahmni is different from the OpenMRS Reference Application. The differences cannot be described succinctly (as @r0bby says, look at the Bahmni website at http://www.bahmni.org/ ).

Generally speaking, Bahmni has a more complete feature set for the “typical health facility” use case, e.g. I believe it has a mechanism to record med dispensing, like you asked about on another thread.
