An announcement to the announcement is good enough @grahamegrieve ! Long journey yes but best done together…

I would expect that generating some derived reference materials from CKM archetypes could be one of the first steps, such as having the internal archetype subsets expressed as FHIR valuesets for their consumption https://linkehr.veratech.es/fhir/ Some first steps as deciding the base namespace of t…

I am so happy and proud this is becoming reality! I look very much forward to collaboration. Remko Schats, MD PhD MBA

This is great news. The community welcomes this. Looking forward to the unified future or standards. As an implementor, we’ve felt the pain over the years of trying to bridge the knowledge gap amongst our teams.

One thing that could really help this along would be to have the two respective online communities ( chat.fhir.org and discourse.openehr.org ) connected formally. This could be done as a (relatively) simple one-way limited integration between Zulip and Discourse using RSS , or a more comprehensive and…

E.g. an openEHR discourse topic that ‘reposts’ all messages from a specific fhir chat channel. And a fhir chat channel that ‘reposts’ all messages from a specific discourse t…

On the HL7 Zulip there’s a Zulip channel - you could reach out to the Zulip team to see what their plans re synchronization are. The HL7 Zulip has 28k users, so a switch to any other platform is unlikely to happen anytime soon. Having ActivityPub support in such forums would be a very nice featu…

I would say no to that. I don’t think HL7 and openEHR are that tightly coupled, we’ve already seen issues where X has a information model focus (openEHR and FHIR Profiles) and Y has process/workflow focus (FHIR API and IHE). I’d be worried that these types of users are coming from different contex…
