Hi Jim, The best forum to ask about the java kernel is the implementers list, I suppose. > > We are looking at bootstrapping our reference model from the OpenEHR > reference information mode.

If you only use classes from data types and data structures, you should be safe. But as soon as you start to use, e.g. EHR, COMPOSITION from ehr_im and VERSION_REPOSITORY from common_im, you will need to handle PARTY_REF, which is an identifier of any subclass of PARTY in the demographic service. Since it is not a direct class reference to the demographic class, it should be possible for you to use id of your own demographic class which is semantically close to PARTY. It would be interesting to know why you want to use your own demographic reference model.
