   6. Foundation & Technology - We met last week in a face-to-face meeting. The following is a summary of the major items discussed (in addition to our discussion of
      • The Security work group has put together a "Security cookbook" to help all projects that need to account for security requirements. The work group asked how do we adopt it across HL7? The cookbook for security threat assessment is intended to help committees evaluate their artifacts. It was suggested that the document be distributed to co-chairs for review. What are the TSC recommendations?
      • Beverly Knight indicated that an ad-hoc "Glossary project" was initiated by Heather Grain who is active both in ISO members and a co-chair of Vocab work group. This informal project is intended to align glossary items between the two SDOs. Publishing work group is currently managing the glossary but the request for collaboration came to Vocabulary work group. Woody Beeler will work with Beverly and Heather to identify the best way to coordinate and publish the resulting artifacts.
      • Galen Mulrooney asked that the ArB representatives communicate clearly when they are making a request on behalf of the ArB and when they are simply submitting a personal request.
      • Ken Rubin asked what is the procedure to extend the trial use period for a DSTU. Charlie McCay that this procedure should be documented in the GOM and it will added if it is not included in the GOM already. Publishing would initiate the removal of an expired DSTU by consulting the work group first.
      • Ken Rubin proposed a RASCI chart to roll out the SAEAF and manage the responsibilities of the various work groups in the steering division. Charlie indicated that the SAEAF is not as fast as expected.
