To all interested in this area: in terms of innovation and ideas, the 
people in this discussion are the 'core group'.  Advice from myself and 
others historically working on the specifications is as I have already 
posted, i.e. IMO, stick to the separation of concerns with respect to 
artefacts. I personally would not include GUI-related hints in templates 
either, because there will eventually emerge some templates that are 
widely shared, e.g. national and international (e.g. European) discharge 
summary, referral, e-prescription etc - but whose GUI models are very 
unlikely to be shared. On that view of things, you don't want to have to 
revise such a published resource due to some particular GUI directives 
buried inside it. This doesn't mean that the ADL (abstract or XML form) 
formalism can't be used, but I still think a separation of the pieces 
will make dependency and release management a lot easier. Erik may be 
right: if the GUI hints can be expressed in a template, then by 
definition, it can be done in a specialised template, and that can 
clearly be local.

At the moment, we have to consider this area as 'industrial research', 
and I for one would encourage all experimentation to be published and 
flagged on this list, as a way of getting us all on the same page with 
respect to lessons being learned.
