Thanks Tony.  I have always tried to be open to the best solutions to my
problems.  Frequently it is a combination of resources.  Of course, we also
have a lot of local debbates and discussions.

Thanks Ian,

Glad to see Tom and Ed's debate on this in the technical list.

Ed,
Sounds like your taking a "support the frontline/bottom-up innovation"
approach to solve Dukes Informatics Challenges, which I think is a
critical element needed for success here..
While I instinctively share Ian and Toms view that openEHR will offer a
more agile approach to scaling and maintaining the clinical content
management in the long term.... openEHR needs to have more working
examples of effective decision support in the action within the
ecosystem to prove that point...

Time will tell what the right level of granularity is needed for
archetypes/compound data types.
Any lessons from the Duke frontline that you can share with us on that
issue would be valuable I'm sure..

Kind regards,

Tony
