- Revised balloting process:
- Discussion topics:
- FHIR Balloting - Lloyd McKenzie
- Naming the Normative pieces of the ballot
- Lynn here to discuss. Need to submit a PINS to ANSI with the correct name for the normative FHIR ballots. FHIR Release 4 is what the STU ballot is named. The NIB name is FHIR Core Release 1; they are requesting, for example, FHIR Release 4 - Infrastructure. Need to have a release 1 added since it is the first normative release. Lloyd notes that release 1 won't appear anywhere within the FHIR spec. Discussion over balloting in packages, but then not having the content in packages within the spec. Discussion over how it is similar and different in Version 3. Lynn: Have to also consider CMETs, where you have a giant conglomeration called CMET that is coming up for reaffirmation. We need to know which pieces balloted Normative in which cycle - we must keep track of the same thing in FHIR. Need traceability of all the pieces over time for subsequent ballots such as reaffirmation. Lloyd: We do not want, five years from now, to be in constant reaffirmation ballots of content that went normative. Lynn: If you want to ballot under continuous maintenance, we need to know that immediately. Paul: Not sure that the consuming audience is prepared to do continuous update. Lloyd: Our cycle is 18 months, and the community has bought in to R3, R4, R5. The cycle may change once more things are normative. If continuous maintenance allows us to accumulate the normative content without having to go to reaffirmation ballot, that would be good. The label on the package as a whole should stay with R3, R4, R5 pattern rather than going to years. Lynn: For ANSI's purposes, we could do FHIR R4, Release 1. This first component of continuous maintenance, ANSI release 1, contains these components of R4. Austin suggests calling it ANSI Release 1. Need to find out if ANSI would seriously object to calling it Release 4. Could call it FHIR R4, ANSI Release 1.
- Lynn to ask Karen if we can use the ANSI name in the title before approval.
- MOTION to call it FHIR R4, Content Area, ANSI Candidate Release 1: Paul/MK
- Ken is concerned that we're overloading the title, and it's not consistent with our naming conventions. If we're going to pilot a new naming convention, we need to put process in place to propose name changes. Lynn states that the naming conventions are structured so people can construct their title, but the TSC remains the ultimate authority in approving names. Would like to see us piloting a cleaner naming convention and not create all this syntax. Suggests removing candidate.
- AMENDED MOTION: call it FHIR R4: Content Area, Release 1: Paul/MK
- Lloyd notes that FHIR is not comfortable.
- VOTE: Ken, ARB, John abstain. Remaining in favor.

- Proof of concept for the revised ballot process
- Reviewed Lloyd's JIRA balloting progress report and associated schedule. Discussion over plug-in requirements - will be written up today. This week will be adding data quality constraints. Core freeze is this week; next week is freeze on the complete spec. Starting March 11, they can start testing the test environment. Will also work on wiki documentation and YouTube videos. Week of March 18 - TSC decision of approach for balloting from 3 options: approve use of JIRA for tracking changes and balloting; approve use of JIRA for tacking changes, ballot using spreadsheets that only include vote and JIRA tracker number; or stay with gforge and transition to JIRA as soon as ballot closes.
- Concerns raised over the fact that not everyone can get to JIRA, which is being worked on. Paul notes that TSC should determine which direction we're going earlier than later. Lloyd: Target for decision date is 3/19. Austin notes that is a very short time frame as we need more time to bring balloters up to speed. Austin's principle concern is people who are unfamiliar with both gforge and JIRA. Floyd: Concerned about moving people to gforge and then to JIRA - multiple changes can be problematic. Hard to move a large community fast. Lorraine: This isn't huge, but it is fast. And it's FHIR's first normative ballot. Paul: The fact that we don't have a test bed set up yet is a concern. Need to have tracker portion testable. Lloyd can have it testable by Thursday. Austin: need to have a significant plan for getting balloters up to speed. Melva: The videos need to be on the education portal as well.
- Clinical Genomics IG PSS Update
- PSS didn't state it was creating an IG. PSS has been updated to reflect IG creation. Seeking TSC approval to authorize them to proceed balloting the IG under that project.
