Rob - you need to fill this in - ask Wendy for instructions. One important aspect is to describe the binding syntax discussion currently happening in the Vocab WG, and describe how it applies to a template registry.
Binding syntax - from HL7 perspective - Core Principles and Properties of V3 Models. Please note this material is going under HL7 normative ballot and is only linked here as a reference guide for binding syntax.
Meta Data Searching

Terminology Templates Searching Capability
Code System and Value Set meta data is drawn from the Templates Registry Business Requirement & Templates DSTU 2007 with the exception of Concept Domain - this vocabulary binding methodology was introduced by MnM & Vocab work groups subsequent to the Templates DSTU publication
Code System Template
| Element | Type | Conformance | Info |
|---|---|---|---|
| Code | String | M | An expression in a syntax defined by the code system which describes the concept. Usually this would be a simple code, but post-coordinated expressions may also be used |
| Code System | String | M | The identity of the codeSystem that defines the syntax and concepts used in the code. This must be a UID, as defined in the rules for the CD.codeSystem property in the V3 abstract datatypes. |
| Code System Version | String | O | If applicable, a version descriptor defined specifically for the given code system. For further information, consult the rules for the CD.codeSystemVersion property in the V3 abstract datatypes. |
Value Set Template
| Element | Type | Conformance | Documentation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value Set Name | String | ||
| Binding Strength | Boolean (CNE or CWE) | M | |
| Concept domain | String | O | Refer to the Concept Domain Template for Concept Domain meta data |
| Binding Realm | String | O | If the value set is bound to a concept domain, what is the binding realm e.g. Universal, Example, or Representative. |
Concept Domain Template
| Element | Conformance | Info |
|---|---|---|
| Concept Domain Name | M | Name of the Concept domain |
| Concept domain Definition | M | Definition of the concept domain |
| Binding Realm | M | Indicates the binding syntax depending which type of bnindg syntax is done - please refer to the Core Principles and Properties of Version 3 Models, section on Binding Vocabulary To Coded Model Elements. |
