Management

  1. Review action items –
    • Austin will contact ES about a front end for GForge to centralize change requests for standards/artifact enhancement that still thwarts the 'bots - meeting this week,may address then
    • Facilitator training tutorials as webinars; Melva will put together a project scope statement; Austin has socialized with a number of work groups. Tooling, Publishing, and MnM have agreed.
  2. Approval items:
    • Tabled Motion for Work Group Formation Request from DESD for the Clinical Quality Work Group at TSC Tracker #2395. Leave tabled as we've not received response.
    • Ballot approval list for 2013Jan ballot cycle:
      • Note from Don: Please note my recommendation under the Continuing Normative Ballots section that we hold off balloting any CMETs until all issues surrounding the balloting of CMETs are resolved. This would apply to the proposed 5th Normative ballot of the Pharmacy CMET
        • Andy describes a long discussion on the CMETs on Friday's Publishing call. He thinks it's ok to send Pharmacy to ballot this cycle but need to establish reconciliation management as yearly releases or individually with release numbers by domain for submission to ANSI. Andy will have to write up a procedure for this and bring it to the TSC for approval. Mead noted he voted a negative last time and a request for withdrawal, but the recon spreadsheet is blank. Melva notes Hugh will look into that. Andy notes that Don was going to reach out to the WG to see where they are and if they are ready to proceed. Austin suggests we pull this one from the list and bring it back next week to see if it has met requirements.
      • ENCPRS is also withdrawing. Woody joins. Ravi joins
        • Pat moves approval seconded by Mead to approve the first two sections on normative ballots with exception of RxCMETs. Vote: unanimously approved.
      • New informative and DSTU ballots - one has alternate open date, discussion on naming of ballot for SAIF Conceptual Specification as differentiated from DAM. Naming conventions discussed, and conflict in standards space for DAM. Now we have a robust definition of DAMs. Austin suggests to take this offline for further discussion. Charlie suggests that the working definition of a DAM has not been made clear to the standards developers. Woody further asks whether conceptual specifications are intended for a normative track? There is that provision in the DAM definition.
        • Mead moves and Pat seconds approval of the DSTU and informative ballots with exception of the SAIF Conceptual Model entry. Unanimously approved.
      • Continuing ballots reviewed.
        • If they have balloted repeatedly, and if they passed previously why didn't they publish. Instead of accepting some level of imperfection they are pursuing repeated ballots. One example is Infobutton IG R4 - previously passed ballot.
        • Austin will follow up with Clinical Statement on when they intend to publish DSTU R2. Mead also suggests education on the publication of the repeated ballots. Woody notes releases are managed by ANSI, versions are managed by Publication, as the stage of the artifacts rather than the stage of the documents. Austin reiterates the need for a comprehensive versioning and release strategy for HL7. Freida recounted a past notion that a DSTU update was not intended to be backwards-compatible, but no longer finds the reference in the GOM.
        • Austin asserts that eMeasure will not be ready in this cycle.
        • Pat moves and Woody seconds approval of the remainder of the ballots as discussed. Unanimously approved.
      • Use of acronyms in ballot announcements titles of the ballot items and in descriptive text. Individual contacted Austin thinking that those emails came from the TSC. TSC does not approve the ballot announcement. Is it Don only or does Publishing need to be involved in that? Pat recounts an issue with the PSS as well not defining their acronyms, and it must start early in the process. It may be also a cochair issue in how they write the NIB.
      • question from EHR on a profile on a standard not yet published (Pat)
        • EHR-S FM R2 is being profiled in Public Health in readiness for MU Phase III. They wish to do a comment only ballot for May. Woody notes there's little restriction on a comment-only ballot. The TSC does not see an issue.
    • Proposed motions (part II) for withdrawal of standards for ANSI cleanup, at TSC Tracker 2365
to be addressed next week.

Governance

  • Governance Discussion topics:
  • Tony notes we need dissertation on ballot reconciliation, posting reconciliation, and other procedural issues at the next WGM. Austin was considering offering "old cochairs" training session at cochairs meeting. Woody suggests it as a mini-video. Training webinars on "how to be a co-chair" would be great.
