Can you tell us more about the openEHR storage and retrieval engine being used in the Brisbane HealthConnect trials? Our situation is that we admire the openEHR model and think that it is basically sound, and have played with the openEHR archetype editing tools, which seem adequate for the task. We'd like to have a go at creating some draft archetypes for use in the public health domain, but in the absence of an openEHR storage engine, either open source or proprietary, we don't really see the point except as an armchair thought experiment. We don't have the resources to build and validate a storage engine of our own (the building doesn't look too hard; validation is the bit that looks like it would consume a lot of resources). Any advice for us on how (or when) we should proceed? Tim C - If you have any questions about using this list, please send a message to d.lloyd at openehr.org
