Thanks for asking. I had the same question and contacted HL7 International a while ago. The "databases" are available from HL7 International, but based on what I understand these are not relational databases. In other words, these "databases" are not schemas from which data repositories can be built to store data derived from HL7 messages. These "databases" simply store the definitions of the RIM, and apparently the HAPI project uses these "databases" to create the Java objects that it needs for processing HL7 messages. Does everyone else have the same understanding?
