This page lists the tasks to be completed by work groups in preparation for the STU 3 release of the FHIR core specification. The timelines for implementation guide publication and balloting may differ. Implementation Guides may choose to either publish in sync with the core specification (and actively manage dependencies as underlying resources and profiles are updated) or may choose to ballot later, once the FHIR specification is finalized. (The disadvantage of the latter approach is that changes to the core specification identified as part of implementation guide revision won't be able to be applied until a subsequent release)

The current schedule for this release is as follows:

  • Sun Oct. 30
    • NIBs due for any IGs balloting in the Jan. cycle
  • Sun Nov. 20
    • All ballot reconciliation complete
  • Sun Nov. 27
    • All substantive changes applied to Core
  • Sun Dec. 4
    • Content freeze for ballot & connectathon & publication QA review
  • Sun Dec. 24
    • QA review complete, Qa changes begin being applied
  • Dec 29 - Jan 3ish
    • Publish
