Introduction

This is supplementary documentation for the HL7 RMIM Designer (in Visio). It collects all of the "add-on" documentation created since the primary RMIM Designer Compiled Help file was created for HL7 by graduate students from the University of British Columbia.

The rationale for this documentation is simple. To provide a one-source set of RMIM Designer documentation for a product that has been developed by multiple people in "fits and starts" over many years. As always any one who sees a hole in this documentation should plug it by making changes!
