Eric, this all sounds like fantastic work - I'm not sure how much scope there would be in the openehr community to be actual members (many are small ISV, university depts etc). Moreover, I kind of see the openehr end of the puzzle as being a 'user' of the standard. By this I mean that if these multidude of devices could all talk sensibly to each other and at the end of the process put data onto a PC in a well documented form we would be happy. Is the standard more about getting the devices to interoperate with each other, or does it also encompass standardised ways of getting the data off the devices and into some sort of clinical patient context (CCOW etc) on a PC?
