Is task planning (PROC) retired or not?

It’s not visible on the specifications website, but I see parts of it in the archetype designer (the Better one) and this website says not openEHR Task Planning v BPMN - Woland's CatWoland's Cat.

What’s the truth - is it retired or not? And if it’s retired why was it retired?

Hi,

You probably refer to PROC Release 1.7.0 - that has indeed a “retired” state. Mainly because we wanted to signal a state which we did not properly have at that time; but was in the meantime added, and now reflects much better the actual situation - it is about the PAUSED state. See here for more information: openEHR - Change Process - it may explain why we did this.

The development version is marked ‘PAUSED’ and is not yet released as such, as there is a consultation process ongoing, which involves relicensing it under a more permissive open licence.

Unfortunately, I don’t know why Archetype Designer still has a TP section, so cannot answer - but in any case, it is not forbidden to have tools and software still supporting it.
