5. Discussion topics:
   1. Review of requested GOM changes for the next update cycle (Freida/Hans)
      • Hans is here to discuss. There are changes regarding contract work process update, electronic ballot processing pilot (elections), common DMP, voting process for Board of directors (when to use reply all), participation by non-members in a user group (limitations to encourage joining), trial use language regarding length of STUs and extensions. TSC extension can be up to 5 years, but is that from the original publication date or the end of the STU? Need to remove the ambiguity. The EC can effectively extend the trial period for many years thereafter - is that the intent? The last part is the reason for extending the trial period, especially if later versions of the standard are available. Stems from the fact that some documents are referenced in government regulation. Calvin: When we talk about trial period being closed, what does that do to an STU today? Freida: When they expire, you have to go to a separate place to access them and you can't make comments anymore. Calvin: That is a terrible thing for documents cited in regulation. Hans: Needs to be conversation with ONC - it's one thing if the trial period stops, but if there's a new version you want comments on that. Calvin: When things get cited, they aren't normative but the industry treats them as so. Comments must be open and errata processed. Hans suggests decoupling STU period from ability to accept comments.
      • Hans to join next week to discuss further.
        • ACTION: Wayne to determine what the ONC needs in terms of trial period being open or not
   2. Joint publication with WEDI containing unballoted HL7 content
      • Attachments WG trying to publish a white paper with WEDI with HL7 name on it without TSC approval of the project or informative ballot. Melva notes that there have been ongoing issues with the WG. Paul: Should we address the process issues on our side and let the EC deal with copyright? Discussion over what parts of the process were completed - PSS went to US Realm, which told them to take it to informative ballot, but no activity or approvals after that. Mary Kay notes that the MOUs between HL7 and X12 and HL7 and WEDI are very different.
        • MOTION to refer this issue to the EC with comments from the TSC: Tony/Melva
        • VOTE: All in favor
   3. Recommendation to appoint Linda Michaelsen and Andrew Statler to CDAMG
      • MOTION to appoint them to the CDAMG: Wayne/Andy
      • VOTE: All in favor
   4. Review of Withdrawal Process
      • Withdrawal form here
        • No mention on the form on how to collect comments.
          • ACTION: Group to review for next week
   5. Product Life Cycle Management Strategy from SGB - Paul/Austin
      • Add to next week
   6. Revised SGB Mission and Charter and boilerplate Mission and Charter - Paul/Austin
      • Add to next week
   7. FHIR Registry Requirements
      • Paul states we've been waiting for two years to get the requirements - how to manage the entry of stuff to get into the registry. Wayne notes there is a prototype registry on FHIR.org. Bob Dieterle put it together under an ONC project with a gap analysis done by Lloyd. Wayne will send an update to the TSC. RFP covered requirements and prototyping.
   8. Essentialism
      • Add to next week
