We could define V3 as being all RIM-derived, HDF based models, and specifications related to the transmission thereof. We probably want to market CDA separately from V3 messages though. Service specifications (e.g. CTS II) is another product line IMO, as are functional specifications (e.g. EHR, RLUS). The problem with service specifications is that they could be based on -or harmonized with- RIM models (but not necessarily so). We also have CCOW and Arden (currently branded as separate products), where do those fit into?

Next Marketing meeting

The HL7 Marketing Committee’s primary responsibility is to develop a promotion and marketing strategy for increasing the visibility of HL7 and advancing HL7 Standards globally. The focus of the comittee activities is on the strategic aspects of marketing, not on day-to-day communications or PR issues.

Strategic Planning Task Force

The Strategic Planning Task Force is a special project which is focused on organizational strategy and process redesign for HL7’s future. The initiative began in August 2005 at the HL7 Board Retreat where a process for developing long-term plans was determined. Preliminary recommendations are expected in February 2006. The work of the Task Force has an overlap with the activities of the Marketing Committee. The activities of the Marketing Committee will be dormant (i.e. be carried out in the context of the Task Force) until a later point in time.

Products

We could define V3 as being all RIM-derived, HDF based models, and specifications related to the transmission thereof. We probably want to market CDA separately from V3 messages though. Service specifications (e.g. CTS II) is another product line IMO, as are functional specifications (e.g. EHR, RLUS). The problem with service specifications is that they could be based on -or harmonized with- RIM models (but not necessarily so). We also have CCOW and Arden (currently branded as separate products), where do those fit into?

Marketing Plan

The main activity of the comittee is the creation of a HL7 Marketing Plan. The goal of this document is to set forth a promotion and marketing plan for increasing the visibility of the HL7 organizations and advancing HL7 standards globally.

The Marketing Plan describes many aspects, the following of which are contained in this Wiki:
