SV AW: Versioning of archetypes: Minor or major changes?

Hi everyone!

This spreadsheet Sebastian mentioned, " spread sheet with some cases to decide what is a major, minor, patch change…", is that available? We’re in the making of such a list in Norwegian, and experienced difficulties to differ among the severity of implications of the changes.

This is definitely a interesting topic to examine more – synchronized version updates of archetypes among all EHRs will never happen for sure…

Kind regards,

Just to add that this is not just an openEHR issue. In the future we will find that revisions in other semantic artefacts like SNIOMED refsets, subsets or changes to FHIR valuesets will have identical safety management issues.

And we can expect an absolutely mixed economy in any ecosystem with different systems and vendors using different minor, major versions, depending on their needs.
