I also agree with Tims comments, we need to stay within scope of OpenEHR. Obviously anyone building an HIS has an interest in proving interoperability with other standards - but that should be up to them not OpenEHR.
Echoing Berts comment if we can get an early heads up on the requirements - it does not have to be perfect nor complete, just something that we can get started with on the design side. Demonstrating connectivity at a conference is great but I plan to have my system running 24/7 on the internet with simulated random data and it would be *very* cool to have a partner system which was sending and receiving data - so you could log into either system and see the data flow...
