  1. Visitors:none
  2. Agenda: John suggests we address what we can without voting.
  3. Request: A couple of DESD work groups are asking for guidelines to help them determine when a project should be considered Universal. They would like to see TSC guidance on this. Reported by Austin.
    • How are local realm projects treated differently than universal realm in our processes? Woody thinks we expect active participation from more than one realm if it's universal. Should have an assertive intent to meet multi-affiliate requirements and participation from at least two HL7 organizations.
    • Gregg asks, if it's a DSTU, do you need implementers from multiple realms? Woody thought that though it would be desirable, it might present a difficult burden and should not be a requirement.
    • Austin asks how formal is the recommendation? Do you need at least two affiliates signed on, or a company like Siemens which is international in scope, does that count? Woody notes the avowed intent is as important as the body count. Someone whose primary participation is through an affiliate should be present on the project team. It needs a stated intent to meet as many international requirements as possible.
    • Austin recaps the TSC guidance that a minimum of two realms should be represented in the stakeholders, that are contributing requirements as well as participation.
    • Austin notes that the question came from an Emergency Medical Services project, (EMS-DMIM) that had been in negotiations with Dutch participation and without their participation changed the project to be U.S. Realm. Like many other times, they set it as universal realm and wait until someone calls attention to it.
    • Gregg notes that in the past when project statements have come through with a specific realm identified, we have asked why they couldn't be made international.
    • Two comments Austin noted on the quality plan he received from international affiliates regarded standards being released that indicated they were universal realm but in fact were not.
    • Woody cites Lloyd's idea that if you are bound to a code system that is not universal you are becoming realm-specific. Binding to a code system would have to be done after the universal spec is identified.
    • Austin notes that he'll put together a draft statement and circulate it to the list. ACTION ITEM: Austin will send something to the list.
  4. WGM:
    • Lynn reports that HQ would like the TSC to identify some key decisions anticipated to be made at the next WGM, to be used for marketing purposes to stimulate interest and attendance.
      • Woody suggests putting it on the committees to flag agenda items that would be of particular interest, for anything at an out-of-the ordinary interest level.
      • Austin suggests that the request go to the co chairs list. Woody suggests that the Steering Divisions can help promote it.
  5. Adjourned 11:39 AM EDT.
