Hi Ed

I am sorry if I sounded disparaging in anyway. I was referring to the 
implementation guide which is the basis for various schematron and other 
approaches (as I understand it). I am sure that a lot of people will 
choose CDA and CCD particularly in the near future. I know you are 
interested in the clinical specifications and have formed a clinical 
council. I think it would be wonderful to see the European effort line 
up with the US effort in the clinical specifications area around the CEN 
and hopefully ISO approach. I understand the difficulties.

A small group of enthusiasts working at a distance has got us to this 
point. The openEHR Foundation is planning to move into formal 
relationships with a number of agencies and we have the prospect of 
alignment of a number of initiatives. I believe a small group working on 
AOM -> MOF would be very useful and give a way forward to a single 
logical representation of clinical content. Clinicians around the globe 
will appreciate this.

Cheers, Sam
