Hello everybody,

We'd like to make a suggestion related to the Archetype Identifier syntax.

At 'The openEHR Archetype System' document we can find the definition for a
multi-axial archetype identifier. One of its parts is the model_name label.
We think that it should be necessary to add there the model version we are
using as basis for defining the archetype. This would be the only way to
check if the archetype definition structure is valid.

For example, we can create an archetype based on open EHR Reference Model
version 0.95. One of the things that the EHR system has to do to validate it
is to check if it matches the RM structure. But, what happens if the system
has information about both openEHR RM version 0.95 and version 1.0 in its
'databases'? It will not be able to do the correct validation because it
doesn't know which version is applicable. So we need a way to include the
reference model version we are using as basis for building the archetype.

What do you think about this?
