well I think it will be best done as a proper openEHR team project, probably in Eclipse / EMF / Ecore. The intention with the ADL Workbench, once it is done, is to not only provide a working tool in the interim, but to provide a set of requirements for such a project. I think with all the skills available in this community, it will be very doable, it just requires some organisation. - thomas -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
