Dear list, Here are some points clarifying the status of openEHR UML2.1 model artefacts cited in Erik Sundvall's email.
1. This rendition of the model is only 95% complete and has some errors. 2. Subject to agreement and some quality review, I would be happy for the model, diagrams and XMI 2.x to be housed and managed on the openEHR site. 3. The healthbase URLs given below are only temporary and the files will disappear from here. 4. All diagrams are based on the current, published 1.0.1 Release of the openEHR specifications. 5. I also hope to produce a separate rendition to reflect the forthcoming 1.0.2 Release of the openEHR specifications. 6. Expect at least one month before finalised artefacts could be available ( unless someone else volunteers to complete the work ) 7. The models/diagrams/XMI were created with the lean, elegant, cross platform tool BOUML ( http://bouml.free.fr ), which also provides code generation support for C++, Java, Python, IDL. 8. I am amenable to the Creative Commons Licence, but would prefer to donate the work to the openEHR Foundation and let them decide the appropriate copyright, which I suspect should align with the standard openEHR Foundation copyright notice published in the specifications. 9. I would rather the work not be widely publicised until it is complete and passed at least one quality review. That said, I would be comfortable for those interested on the openehr-technical list to investigate its utility and shortcomings and let me/others know their thoughts. regards, eric On 28/08/2008, at 12:13 AM, Erik Sundvall wrote: > Hi! > > I imported an openEHR UML (XMI) file created by Eric Browne (using > BOUML) into the Eclipse-based Topcased environment a couple of minutes > ago and saw that most template related classes were implemented.
