I think we (local/regional organizations working with and on openEHR) need formal support from the openEHR fundation. One basic form of support is to recognize the local/regional openEHR organizatons as such. Other is to recognize our contributions to the community, like mentioning our work on presentations, publications and other public communications (I think a public communications strategy should be traced by openEHR foundation). If we think of money, there are ways of money support without giving real money: we need software tools (archetype & template editors), we need access to events far away, we need books, educational resources, etc, etc. The foundation should draw yearly general goals, to the openEHR project as a whole, and to the local/regional representatives. And should follow and coordinate the work and evaluate the results. Those goals could be technical, educational, communicational, among other kinds. Here is a related thread with some other ideas: http://www.openehr.org/mailarchives/openehr-implementers/msg00889.html What do you think?
