Subject: Porting XMedcon to FreeBSD

Hi Eric Nolf!

I stumbled over your program on the net and think it's really useful, 
so thanks for putting time and effort into making it. At the hospital where 
I'm currently working we're running a FreeBSD system for conversion between 
Interfile to DICOM.

It is currently available for Linux, Windows and MacOS X, but with your
permission I would like to put this program into FreeBSD's port tree. It would
not take any time from you as I would maintain it, except that an e-mail when 
you've put a new version on sourceforge would be appreciated.

I do not know if you are familiar with the operatingsystem FreeBSD? If not,
then please take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/ They have a really neat
system for maintaining ported applications, and that's what I would use in my 
effort to make your application available to a wider user community.
For already ported applications you can take a closer look at 
http://www.freebsd.org/ports/index.html.

I look forward to an e-mail from you.

Best regards,
Paul Everlund
