My problem is not that there are areas which are not covered by a GPIC. But I am not the person to judge that. I am a programmer with some experience in medical informatics. My problems are in the area of technical implications about how details are worked out, or not worked out. The problems I mention are minor issues about details. I have more then I mentioned on this list. And it is impossible to wait for a committee to finish discussions and being uncertain about the outcome. Let me see how much time the responsible committees need to address the problems I mentioned. I can afford to wait three days. My projects are under time pressure. Medical Informatics in the Netherlands is a very much closed society. A lot of people do not discuss much, do not help each other, are not honest, hide their weaknesses and misunderstanding. A GP in the Netherlands who writes once in a while to a mailinglist, which is (not surprisingly) called "Openkaart" (meaning: Open Information Exchange), which of course it is not, he wrote: "ICT is an Image of reality, this makes painfully clear a lot about the Dutch healthcare" - If you have any questions about using this list, please send a message to d.lloyd at openehr.org
