I don't believe that your goals depend on your audience in any way. Maybe
you will describe them differently, the goals itself should remain the same.

Which is only possible because someone (I guess it were Horst, Karsten, Ian,
Richard ) a long time ago had a vision of what they wanted to build.

How can I convince you that having a clear vision of what you want to build
is no marketing buzz or academic nonsense ?
If you build a house, you will sit down first and make a plan of what you
need exactly. Then you ask an architect to make a plan of how the house will
look like and how it will be built.
The same goes for software engineering. First there is a vision (a goal),
then you make up your specs, then you start to code.
Without a clear vision, your specs will be wrong (written down or not),
which will finally result in useless code.

There is no way to good solutions without hard thinking before, I guess.

Sure, Universities are supposed to produce good science, not good software
applications.

I guess the doctors do care for what Gnumed will be able to do finally. They
just want to know if right now GNUmed matches their idea (=vision) of what a
medical software should look like.
