Description | The intention going forward is for publishing and tooling to jointly own the process for generation of the FHIR website. (Somewhat similar to the V3 publishing process.) Because of the developmental nature that is still inherent in FHIR there will be a need for more than one version of the specification available at any given time. For example, one can envision having versions of the specification available concurrently: 1) the version to be voted on, 2) the official previously balloted version, 3) a time limited version to support a specific connectathon and 4) a sandbox version where new resources are developed. The hosting requirements to address these needs still needs to worked out between HL7 HQ and the FHIR team. Also need to include definition of the business process for FHIR publication as part of this project. The existing FHIR specification build process involves use java code and batch files and is manually maintained by Grahame Grieve. (note: I believe Josh Mandel is looking at the process for areas of improvement.) Nevertheless the existing process needs to be documented and in some sense institutionalized to HL7 as part of this project's scope. The existing specification build process may need to be adjusted to accommodate turning it over to process owners other than the FHIR core team. |

Project Intent | New/Modified HL7 Policy/Procedure/Process |
Project Need | FHIR is rapidly becoming one of our most actively referenced standards. As we move into the DSTU period, we need to ensure that we have the appropriate support for managing the standard, and that our procedures are sustainable for the medium term. HL7 needs to be able to publish appropriate versions of the FHIR specification as routine part of its business processes. |

Misc Notes | 2020 Jan: B. Pech: evolution of how the FHIR specification and derivative items are published has rendered 1062 as no longer meaningful and so it can be closed. PMO archiving. 2018 Feb: BPech: Publishing did a review of all its opened projects at the WGM in New Orleans -- updated date to the Sept. 2018 cycle. 7.a Stakeholders: FHIR implementers |
