Meeting minutes

Concept IRIs

gaurav: Have to drop in 30 minutes.
… Prepared the MeSH jira ticket: https://jira.hl7.org/browse/UP-377
… Still need to write the code for the other proposals.
… Will be out next Thur.
… Also need to let people know about LOINC issue on zulip, to get votes.

ACTION: DBooth to add link to Jira MeSH ticket as example in rdf.html

Meeting w TIMS group

dbooth: Group suggested adding FAQ to the list maintained by FHIR-I.

eric: Suggest find out more specifically what Davera was suggested.

ACTION: Chris to ask Davera what she meant to suggest and whether it needs to be done before Feb 24

gaurav: Chris Chute was confused about the SNOMED relevance. But no action needed.

jim: There was a question about the ICD10 namespace.

gaurav: When there is not an authoritative IRI stem, we should reach out to groups to ask.

eric: There's a serious risk if we claim authoritative IRIs for things if the publisher does not provide one.
… I think we should not provide one if the publisher does not provide one.

dbooth: Same problem in choosing system URI.

AGREED: At least for the moment, we won't publish non-authoritative IRI stems.

ITS WG meeting

dbooth: I'll join virtually, and give an update.

CHris: I might be able to join. I'll be there.

FHIR Build process

jim: Good news and more questions. Been making changes in the FHIR core library, in HAPI fhir repo.
… It has RDF code, some of which is generated. Kindling depends on that, and then FHIR gen depends on kindling.
… Grahame helped me through where I was stuck. Got it close to compiling, then a have a few things to fix, then able build the whole fhir lib.

jim: structure defs seem to have fhir:v, but examples like observation still use fhir:value .

dbooth: the ontology rdf.ttl has some fhir:v in it, so maybe grahame already did something.

ACTION: DBooth ask Guoqian about adding Rob (and Jim) to skype channel.

ACTION: Jim to follow up with Daniel and Deepak

HAPI

eric: Rob and I went through the code, got a feeling about what's needed. Mostly deletions, some additions on polymorphic types.

dbooth: How soon do you think you can have something testable?

eric: 3 weeks? Rob will be busy with other things the next two weeks.

dbooth: If someone became available, whould they be helpful? Eric: Yes.
