It is great to see your fresh eagle eyes combing the openEHR specifications, Richard. It is a common pattern that the eyes of those who have been heavily immersed in the development and writing, tend to skip past typos like these! I hope all is going well for you in your new roles. I am in regular touch still with Martin Severs and he has been carefully combing my new book’s manuscript! Best wishes, David

Hi David - absolutely, a fresh pair of eyes often sees what the author doesn’t. After years of reviewing specifications, these things just stand out to me. Plus, I am taking the time to read the specifications in some detail.
It has been a while since I dipped my toe in the openEHR world, but I am making a concerted effort to reacquaint myself.
As ever, the quality of the specification assets is one of the greatest assets of the openEHR product.

Thank you for reporting this.
I made a ticket [SPECLANG-10] - openEHR JIRA and will be fixed in next revision of that specification.
Well also, some of the texts are quite old and we (= me 
didn’t have a modern in-line dictionary available when editing. Anyway, all these fixes are going in, so thanks for making the effort.
