My understanding is that it is evolving from the "CCR" (continuity of care record) project involving the state of Massachusets and the ASTM medical records standards project outlined at: http://www.astm.org/cgi-bin/SoftCart.exe/COMMIT/COMMITTEE/E31.htm?L+mystore+qkvm5991+1061259141
Personally, I would like to see all EHR-related standards work... at least in the US... coordinated under the umbrella of HL7. At the moment, the CCR project does not appear to be headed toward HL7.
