Is it true that there are two types of templates: generic ones like 'lab 
request' (which contains a combination of several archetypes), and a 
further constrained version for local usage?
If so, this might mean that clinicians that are trained in openEHR could 
design the first kind of templates (like Heather Leslie proposed); while 
'local' clinicians will decide in (I believe, but correct me if I'm 
wrong: preferably) one and the same session about the local template and 
UI features.
Or, are templates generally speaking too specific to local practice (so 
that each template has to be designed locally) to make the above 
distinction?
