Thanks Eric, Koray, Shinji, Heather, Seref, The way the programme outlines openEHR sessions looks ripe for potential confusion...
A search of the draft programme by keyword highlights openEHR 5 times, (#1-4) openEHR sessions I-IV over the day on the Saturday 11th September (#5) openEHR developers session on the evening of Monday 13th September I'd suggest that the clinical and technical sides of the openEHR community need to agree between us how to blend our efforts together to get the best value for our time and those that want to come and learn. The best format that comes to mind would be to; -A) use to 4 sessions on the precongress tutorial on the Saturday 11th to explore how healthcare can change for the better with openEHR over those 4 sessions, by blending the "clinical workshop" proposal with the "openEHR developers workshop" proposal in successive stages over the day.. something along the lines of... Context & Intro re need for change; Clinical/Technical Requirements -->Design/Build --> and then Implementation + Clinical/Technical Benefits of openEHR -B) take the highlights of that day, with clinical + technical blend into a single session for replay on the Monday 13th, to the different audience that can be anticipated on that first day of the formal conference. I appreciate that might be seen to be disruptive of the existing proposals, but I'm sure they can be blended effectively. I'm thinking of the novice to openEHR who will want to come away with an understanding of how clinicians and technical folk can work together to get a job done and a view that the openEHR approach is the way to go... Happy to get bounced back on this. We havent had enough debate on this list of late, so again I'm trying to provoke!
