***Carry forward. Related concern around US Realm stuff – Lorraine thought stuff there would be handled by domain committees, but there is a block vote out for next week for US Realm. Paul notes that it came up in FMG to determine if they could ask people to be interested parties or cosponsors but not go to each individual WG. Lorraine notes work on US Core is going on inside but by a small group outside the WG. Need to discuss what the process will be for involving WGs. The work is being developed by a separate group than the WGs. US Realm has said that the WGs still own the content. Paul: We should review the prior decision and see if US Realm wants to change it. Thom: Anyone can create a profile on a resource. Paul: Things that are being developed for the US Realm, the US Realm people should be able to participate in that profile. Where is the work being done within HL7 and how is it being shared with the committees. Lorraine: The core of the problem is that they’re accelerating things past where the WGs are. One concern is process; another is how we ensure that the WGs responsible for certain resources have the opportunity to engage and bring their expertise forward; and how do we deal with work being done on an accelerated timeline but not by the people who have the domain expertise. Wayne: ONC is driving a lot of this because they own the data elements. More fast track projects will be popping up. US Core affects everything we do, while others will be smaller in scope. There may be a precept in here, perhaps an impact assessment. Paul: One thing missing in US Realm Steering Committee is an actual working committee doing the work outside of the steering committee. Group agrees. Who would flesh that out? PLA? ARB? Lorraine: Need to make sure TSC would agree. Rik: It’s a little strange from an international perspective. Discussion over how the UK does it. Every other affiliate has a place to have these groups outside of HL7 International. Where’s the middle ground with getting the review you want without setting up a US Affiliate. Wayne notes that the board decided not to do that. US Realm voted to work through the other WGs so they will need to make a decision. Lorraine: The difference is where the new content comes from. Paul: We need to find some WG within which the work will be done. Rik: They should just do stuff in the right existing WG. Lorraine: FHIR and FMG work with all of the WGs.

**Issues and risks around balloted vs. non-balloted feedback in FHIR from different perspectives

***In order to ballot, you must be a member or purchase the right. Anyone, however, can enter a tracker comment. Lorraine asks if this has been discussed at the Board level; Wayne reports that it hasn’t outside of a very broad sense. Lorraine: One of the core principles is that the weighted influence of our members on the standards is a priority. Other input should be encouraged and considered, but greater weight should be placed on the ballot. Paul: In terms of comments, I think comments should have less priority/weight than a ballot. But are comments from members different from comments from non-members? Lorraine: One issue was the prioritization of comments on normative ballot outlined in Lloyd’s email. Paul: We’ve also never had a group considering changes to material before the ballot because of external comments. If ballot comments have precedence, then you can’t apply comments while the ballot is open. Lorraine: The precedence question was around prioritizing different comments – community comments on a normative ballot vs. ballot comments on STU. Which one is a priority to process? Paul: What we need to work out is what we want as an organization and issue guidance. From a standard perspective, what’s the process we should use for comments vs. ballot items? What’s our position with respect to what it means in terms of comments? Lorraine: In the STU world, we ballot, accept comments, publish as STU, and continue to accept comments. Thom: Where in the process is where we want to consider community comments? Paul: We collect comments during development of a good; community triages and decides what to apply. At some point in time, we declare a review step. Should we accept comments in the review step in addition to ballot items? Should we apply comments received in the time between ballot and publication? Or do we just allow them both to come in and committees prioritize? Lorraine: For V2, we have a cutoff date for which comments can be considered for a specific release. Comments are accepted after that, but they’re applied to the following release. Nobody makes changes to the spec based on those comments after the deadline. FHIR is applying those, however. Paul: The good is changing while it’s under ballot, which could prejudice a later decision.
 +
****For next week: In the event that comments come in during the ballot period before publication, and someone has alerted you to an important thing – what do we do? Does it become a found item? Does the committee have to vote on it? Is it excluded completely until the next version? Or do we hope someone submits it as a ballot item?
