In the current openEHR reference model, there are 3 top-level packages, known as: - rm: the information model - am: the archeype model - sm: the service model
The first of these really should be "im", not "rm", and is only "rm" for historical reasons. As we convert from BitKeeper to Subversion, and also as we are approaching release 1.0, it occurs to me that it would be nice to make the change of "rm" to "im", which would make documentation clearer, and reduce the confusion around the phrase "reference model". However, there is already a fair bit of software, schemas and so on around the place. It might be too late to make such a change. Note that it need not be done for software still to be correct, since we are only talking about a package name - it does not change any class names, nor any tag names in XML data that I can think of. Can I have reactions on how this change would be received. It were ever to be made, now would obviously be the time. - thomas beale -- ___________________________________________________________________________________ CTO Ocean Informatics (http://www.OceanInformatics.biz) Research Fellow, University College London (http://www.chime.ucl.ac.uk) Chair Architectural Review Board, openEHR (http://www.openEHR.org) - If you have any questions about using this list, please send a message to d.lloyd at openehr.org
