ITS WG

The XML SIG was renamed the ITS SIG in Jan 2007, wiki content from the XML SIG is found here.

The ITS SIG supports the HL7 mission through the development of Implementable Technology Specifications and Messaging Protocol guidelines (e.g. ebXML, Webservices, MLLP, ..) to be used when putting the HL7 information specifications to use.

Sponsoring TCs are Infrastructure and Messaging TC and Structured Documents TC
