Hi Karsten, Apologies! Should have explained myself better.
drugref.org was published 1/26/2003. It needs additional publication and time before acceptance and receiving participation from people with a 'medical, pharmaceutical, or biochemical degree'. It needs expanded scope as well since side effects are major concerns with drugs and drug databases. Since I have a collection of Engineering, Computer Science and Law degrees, plus personal experience, I am not included within the stated membership. Restricted globalization might be a better title. As for open-source, this is one area where source code control is a necessity. SQA (Software Quality Assurance) has stringent requirements often not met with open peer review. -Thomas Clark ----- Original Message ----- From: "Karsten Hilbert" <[email protected]> To: <openehr-technical at openehr.org> Sent: Tuesday, May 06, 2003 9:02 AM Subject: Re: Encoding concept-relationships in openehr archetypes. > Thomas, > > > I would like to see this and similar projects > > expanded and globalized. > > > > Would really like to see non-prescription and herbal medicines integrated as > > well.
