  15. Discussion Topics:
    • Open Issues List
    • Ballot title change request, CDS would like to change the title as it might better match the ballot contents if the name had "UML Model" removed). This is because the implementation guide contains more than just the UML model. In fact, for this cycle, the main content is content other than the UML model, which we expect will be included in the next ballot cycle.
      • Request to change
        HL7 Version 3 Implementation Guide: Virtual Medical Record for Clinical Decision Support; (vMR-CDS) UML Model for GELLO, Release 1 (1st Informative Ballot),
      • to
        HL7 Version 3 Implementation Guide: Virtual Medical Record for Clinical Decision Support; (vMR-CDS) for GELLO, Release 1 (1st Informative Ballot); logged at TSC Tracker # 1479
    • V2.6 and 2.7 errata for TSC discussion TSC tracker #1523 - There are two options for moving the V2.7 ballot forward:
      1. Publish the flawed document with an errata
        • Publish the flawed document accompanied by an errata that explains the problematic fields, how to use them correctly to maintain backwards compatibility, and noting that they will be corrected in V2.8 (and publish errata for 2.6). If Frank is agreeable to this approach and will withdraw his negative, we can publish V2.7
          • All of the voters in the consensus pool should be advised of the issue. We might want to conduct a re-circulation ballot as a means of advising the ballot pool of the errata solution and letting them vote on whether that is an acceptable resolution.
        • If Frank is not agreeable to this approach and won’t withdraw his negative, we will conduct a re-circulation ballot that acknowledges the problem described by the outstanding negative but offers up the errata as the solution. If this ballot passes, we can publish V2.7. If this ballot does not pass, we will have to correct the flaws and conduct another normative ballot.
      2. Correct the flaws now and conduct another normative ballot on 2.7 and publish errata for 2.6.
    • HL7 Security Considerations - Cookbook, at TSC Tracker # 1513
