Hello all,

After the Tromsø conference we started working with the template model  
and its different representations and we can finally announce that  
LinkEHR platform fully supports importing of archetype templates  
defined in both OPT and OET format. This way existing templates can be  
used as basis for LinkEHR data transformation, working with templates  
created with Template Designer.

During this work, we found some inconsistencies in OET format. Is  
there a place where we can discuss problems with OET representation?

Regards

Hi Diego,

This is probably as good a place as any to discuss the issues you have  
found but I would suggest that working with .oet might not be  
particularly helpful. .opt is the key IMO, particularly is it will be  
a key bridge to ADL1.5

Really good news. Looking forward to seeing the outcome.

Ian

I think probably the implementers list is best.
