Re: List future [was: Why are you here?]
I whole-heartedly support combining the two lists and then a group-hug! David On Thu, 16 Mar 2006 14:53:10 +0800 Molly Cheah [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thank you Brian for this timely decision. I sincerely hope this will be a start for a new era for the OSS in Healthcare Community. I have forwarded this e-mail to the Yahoo list for discussion. Many of you who had not signed on the yahoo list may have missed out on the discussion on the ressurrection of OSHCA. I will be moving for the ressurrection quickly now. Barring unforseen circumstances and a change in sentiments, we should see OSHCA back as well as one openhealth list. In the meantime I'm going to post on both lists and I look to getting support for my actions based on decisions made during past discussions for the ressurrection on OSHCA. Molly Brian Bray wrote: Thanks everyone for the feedback. I have a proposal that I've worked out with Molly Cheah, who is working to incorporate the Open Source Health Care Alliance (OSHCA). Joseph Dal Molin, Tim Cook, and Adrian Midgley were also involved. The proposal is to form the Openhealth list at OSHCA.ORG managed by volunteers for OSHCA. This list and the Yahoo list would be moved and closed. The OSHCA domain name and trademark would be transfered as soon as possible to facilitate this event. This proposal would realise a goal that I have had for a long time. As far as I can determine, it would meet all the concerns expressed over the last few days. Please comment on this proposal and feel free to ask any questions either on the lists or directly to Dr. Cheah or myself. -Brian David H Chan, MD, CCFP, MSc, FCFP Associate Professor Department of Family Medicine McMaster University http://oscarmcmaster.org

Re: Australian OpenEHR implementation, was Re: Typed untyped languages
Perhaps I'll add my nickle's worth here. I have personally come to believe that an Open Source project is characterized by an openness to collaborate with others. If one is to work on an OS project alone then gives it away for free - that makes the person a Santa Claus! I have in fact learned that there are many who have the good intention to share their code but few who truly embrace the OS community spirit. I understand Horst's frustration (and others). The fact that we keep hearing that a certain OS will some day be released but in the mean time it's not open for collaboration makes one wonder if it truly is an OS project at all.

I gather that none you know of any specific plan to publish the Australian implementation of OpenEHR under an open source license? the implementation of which I am talking is _one_ implementation of openEHR, being done for a clinical trial as part of the national HealthConnect programme. This isn't the _reference_ implementation of the openEHR specifications however, which is underway, and which will definitely be released open source. The HealthConnect project is to build a system for a particular need, the openEHR reference work will build high-quality, re-usable openEHR components which can be used in many systems. As you might imagine there are a number of projects using openEHR specifications - there is nothing to stop anyone using them, but there is no obligation on users of the specs to release their code. - thomas David H Chan, MD, CCFP, MSc, FCFP Associate Professor Department of Family Medicine McMaster University http://oscarhome.org
Re: Alberta Canada - POSP
OSCAR has not been asked to participate in this program. However, a number of clinics have chosen to use OSCAR in another similar program in British Columbia: http://www.vch.ca/health_services/PHCN/PHCN%203%20VCHA%20PHC%20Renewal%20Funding%20Opportunities%20Jan%202003.pdf David David H Chan, MD, CCFP, MSc, FCFP Associate Professor Department of Family Medicine McMaster University http://oscarhome.org On Mon, 29 Mar 2004 14:23:04 -0800 Walt Pennington [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: https://host.softworks.ca/agate/ama_posp/menu4.asp Alberta, Canada appears to be working on EHR integration for its providers called Physician Office System Program (POSP).
