+==== Versioning ====
+It is still to decide if the best way of storing forms is a relational database or better a document based database, like MongoDB. Forms are constantly changing (=updated), a common problem in usual software products is that if newer forms are available and updated, the older forms are not accessible any more. So forms must be versioned as well.
+==== Storage ====
+[[http://www.freemedforms|FreeMedForms]] or the newer [[https://www.freehealth.io|FreeHealth]] have a way to automatically save forms from an xml file (should be ported to JSON) into a MYSQL database. This is interesting. But I still think that a Document based database would be the better way to store such data.
+==== Structure ====
 The forms module should provide a central API for creating forms, e.g.
