Issues List The RDF for Semantic Interoperability group (or RDF group) is a sub-group of the HL7 ITS work group. The RDF group works jointly with the W3C Healthcare and Life Sciences group on Clinical Observations Interoperability to facilitate the use of RDF as a common semantic foundation for healthcare information interoperability.

How to Participate

Anyone may join this group simply by participating in the work, which is conducted mainly on the public HL7 and W3C mailing lists listed below and on a weekly teleconference. You are encouraged to become an HL7 member, but not required unless you wish to take a leadership role in an HL7 group, such as becoming a co-chair. You are also encouraged to have your organization become a W3C member, but not required. See benefits of W3C membership.
