Definition and Purpose

NOTES:

package -

packageLocation@root values

• "DEFN" The package represents the artifacts being defined.

• "BAL" The package groups a set of content defined elsewhere intended to be submitted for ballot

  QUESTION:[why "elsewhere" why could not a ballot package have DEFN elements within a DEFN package that is part of its content??]

• "PUB" The package a set of content defined elsewhere as a formal publication

  QUESTION:[why "elsewhere" why could not a publication package (like a Normative Edition) have DEFN elements within one or more DEFN package(s) that is(are) part of its content??]

contents:

freehand, DAM, domainInstanceExample, SB, DT model, IFC, vocModel, staticModel (SM) (serialized or flat), serialized (SM), derived (SM), strucDoc, TE, INT, AR, interactionProfile, conformanceProfile, testScenario, publication, package

QUESTION:Why is mif:publication/mif:packageLocation/@root not limited to "PUB" only?

MIF ballot:

• says realmNamespace is "Mandatory",

  OBSERVATION: but it is optional in the schemas (at least in mif:package/packageLocation)

• also says that packageLocation/@artifact - "Identifies the type of artifact represented. Applies to all "Definition" artifacts. The set of artifacts is controlled by HL7's Publishing work group in consultation with Modeling & Methodology and Tooling."

  OBSERVATION: Clearly, it does not apply to the DEFN file for CorePrinciples, because it is not a "DC" and therefore its package location is (I believe):

  <mif:packageLocation root="DEFN" realmNamespace="UV" name="v3modelcoreprinciples"/>
