Minutes

• Agenda review
• Approve Minutes of 2017-08-02_SGB_Conference_Call
  • MOTION to approve: Austin/Thom
  • VOTE: All in favor
• Action Items
  • Draft precept on use of new tools/coordinate with Wayne
    • Paul notes there are tools that we use and tools that we create. Calvin: It should be specific to new tools - a path and a process to allowing use. Lorraine: It would be in our scope to look at the ones related to standards development. Anything beyond that goes to TSC. Calvin: Every product family that's new comes with its own bolus of tools, perhaps because the methodologies are different. Austin notes there has been struggle in Structured Docs over using ArtDecor to generate a ballot rather than Trifolia, for example. Paul would like this attached to our organizational tooling strategy. Calvin: Maybe it's not so much a new precept but we need to dust off the existing policies. Product management groups should coordinate with EST - but who is the final decider? Need to bring tooling and Wayne together to this meeting to discuss. Perhaps should list all tools being used on the PSS.
      • ACTION: All to look at the tooling document and review tooling inventory.
      • ACTION: Paul to reach out to EST cochairs regarding meeting on Friday in San Diego.
      • ACTION: Anne to look into possibility of having David J. and Laura dial in.
      • ACTION: Move this item to parking lot
  • Paul to reach out to Kai regarding Templates piece of the VMR items.
    • Kai did a cursory review and he felt that a number of the recommendations have not been met. Paul will ask him to review and comment on the ballot or send his comments through to SGB so one of us can add.
  • Paul to send original documentation of VMR requirements to Anne to send to ARB and SGB.
    • Lorraine completed.
  • Austin will make edit recommended by TSC regarding voting to the boilerplate M&C template and send on to management groups.
    • Boilerplate was updated. CIMI folks are looking at it as they work on theirs.

    • Add to parking lot

    • ACTION: Add to parking lot
• Discussion Topics
  • State machine alignment call on Monday: Paul summarizes the issue. May get a precept regarding documentation for implementers when there aren't perfect maps. This will likely not be completed on Monday - may need to discuss further in San Diego. Will attend FGB's lunch on Monday. Decision that Lorraine/Dave will lead the discussion on Monday as SGB is joining FGB. Lisa's issue will be the problem statement to work around. At a high level it's that the concepts of instance status versus business status on resources are not as rigidly represented as they have been in prior HL7 materials.
