Re: [regrep] FW: IECM Standards Proposal

["Carl Mattocks" <carlmattocks@checkmi.com>]

I think the most obvious need in CMS interoperability is the ability to
leverage the power of federation. Especially the ability to enable
federated content discovery via federated classification.

As a very concrete step forward I suggest that the TC review the paper
"managing medical ontologies, OWL & eBusiness registry , repository" I
produced AND then the full IHE XDS (cross document sharing) guidelines
that describe how the  Registry & Repository facilitate info sharing by
multiple organizations.
