Hi Pablo, Yes, you are right. Code sets are language independent. See my comment in the java implementation:
http://www.openehr.org/svn/ref_impl_java/TRUNK/mini-termserv/src/main/java/org/openehr/terminology/SimpleCodeSetAccess.java I think I have created an JIRA issue on this but couldn't find it now.
