Conformance and Guidance for Implementation/Testing
The HL7 Implementation committee supports HL7 members and other users of HL7 (draft) standard specifications, with the identification and resolution of issues related to successful implementation thereof. The committee seeks to make successful implementation of HL7 specifications a collaborative activity involving the technical committees developing the specifications and consumers using them to solve real-world interoperability challenges.
This Wiki will be used to develop an implementation FAQ, as well as a place to maintain and evolve ideas that have been discussed in committee. Formal minutes and agendas will still be maintained and posted to the HL7.org website - with this space providing for a more fluid development of content, where meeting notes will be fleshed out beyond what may heve been said in the meeting, and then used as the basis for other documents. The page history can be used to see what has been added since a particular meeting.
