I was considering applying some of the principles of OpenEHR; like the step 
from gnumed to mini-gnumed: a much simplified "version" that preserves some 
of the spirit but doesn't suffer from overengineering and implementation 
complexity.

Example: If I use a single table for any kind of observation (whether it is 
blood pressure or serum bubble gum) and have a second table with specifiers 
(eg format string for UI display & constraint checking, comment on usage 
etc.) and simply store a foreign key to that specifier table for each 
observation record I have captured much of the spirit of OpenEHR already, I 
can get a flying start, and I reduce the number of tables (and maybe 
complexity of relationships) in my system considerably - as well as 
facilitating ease of import/export.
