Sorry Gerard, for responding so late, I am so busy. Looks promising to me, on one hand, I continue developing GPICs as much as is needed and asked for. On the other hand, I will try to find funding for creating a live-query-set which can deliver data to archetype editors, and maybe it will be possible to support some ADL-scripts. I know, archetypes can be programmed hard-coded, but that has not much of a challenge to me. We'll see, anyway there are people wanting GPICs, let me serve them first Regards Bert Verhees > > Gerard Freriks > = > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > -- > > -- > > Gerard Freriks, MD > > Convenor CEN/TC251 WG1 > > > TNO Quality of Life > > Wassenaarseweg 56 > > Leiden > > > PostBox 2215 > > 22301CE Leiden > > The Netherlands > > > +31 71 5181388 > > +31 654 792800 > > > On 17-jul-2005, at 21:43, Bert Verhees (ROSA Software) wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> Thomas Beale asked me to write more to this mailinglist, and I have >> an important issue to discuss. >> >> Last thursday, I had a meeting wherein Thomas was present, in fact, >> it was education about EN13606.
