This is provisional; if everyone thinks that these are ok I will post them as the formal record on the OHF website (in about 24 hours time)

Outcomes for OHF meeting in Thursday Mar 23th 2:00 pm held in Santa Clara CA.

Attendees
---------
  Skip McGaughey - Eclipse
  Donald Smith - Eclipse
  Grahame Grieve - Jiva Medical
  Don Jorgenson - Inpriva
  Ted Bashar - BEA
  Raghavan Kripakaran - Cisco
  Chok Lam - Cisco
  Krishan Veer - Cisco
  Dan Ford - IBM
  Dan Armbrust - Mayo Clinic

  Russ Hamm - Mayo
  Eishay Smith - IBM
  
Agenda
------
  The agenda was accepted as proposed, and we did actually pretty
  much stick to the times in the agenda. These notes are not minutes,
  they are the outcomes from the meeting.


Project Status Reports
----------------------
  Framework
  Don is continuing to work on this, and we should start seeing
  documents soon in order to feed further discussion.

  CTS
  Mayo's licensing issues have been resolved. Russ and Dan are
  refactoring and reworking the code before contributing it to
  Eclipse. LexGrid needs to integrate with the H3ET platform,
  and further discussions are required to identify how this can
  be achieved.
  
  H3ET
  Relationships with HL7 and users, particularly including
  UK NHS, are progressing well. A prototype has been developed,
  and we are working the production version now. Some of the
  code will be released this year
  
  OSGi/Server
  Equinox has created an OSGi/Server, and the community is full
  of buzz about it. We will work to make sure that OHF core
  packages - particularly IHE actors - work under OSGi/Server.
  
  XDS
  Project is full steam ahead. Grahame to visit IBM for further
  discussions. Sarah and Don has been attending IHE meetings
  to keep track of IHE developments for OHF.
  
  WADO
  Project is full steam ahead.
  
  Process Issues
  We need to clarify when the eclipse contribution process
  applies to the code that will be contributed by OHF committers
  and contributers this year, and we need to keep the time this
  takes in mind when we consider project schedules. Grahame to
  follow up with regards to uncertainty about when the process
  most be followed.
  

Candidate Components
--------------------
  Two components were proposed. Both were recommended to the 
  OHF committers for adoption as OHF Components. 
   - HL7 V2 - messaging & profile runtime code and editors
       committer: Grahame Grieve
   - Public Health Simulation Framework (see IBM's document - where???)
       committer: Dan Ford from IBM
  The nominated committers will need to fill out the appropriate
  paperwork and then the committers will vote on the adoption of 
  these components.     
   
   
IHE implementations
-------------------
  The IHE implementations are the main focus of the OHF work plan for
  this year (See the comments in the OHF plan for 2006). Later this year,
  once we have completed the first milestone, we will start seeking 
  partners to work with us to get their products certified at the IHE
  connectathon using the OHF IHE actors, and then to be involved in
  the HIMSS IHE demo.
  
  Some design work is required to ensure that we have a degree
  of consistency in the IHE implementations. There was no consensus
  at all about what that actually means in some specific cases, so
  discussion was deferred to the ohf-dev mailing list.
  
  
Plan for 2006
-------------
  The OHF plan for 2006 was nearly adopted. Some final wordsmithing
  is required to resolve the exact IHE profiles that we plan to 
  complete. This will be done on the ohf-dev mailing list.
  
  We defined milestones in the draft plan and discussed how we might
  meet these milestones. All details in the plan.

  
Next meeting
------------
  We discussed having a meeting in association with the next Eclipse
  members meeting at Stuttgart, Germany in October. The committers 
  are interested in this idea, but we probably need to have a FTF 
  meeting before that. There was no consensus regarding when or where
  this might be, so discussion on this was deferred until more 
  information is available.
  

Relationships
-------------
  We continue to keep an eye on the healthcare and eclipse landscapes
  looking for new initiatives that we need to work with or help out.
  There is a whole group of Eclipse initiatives relating to OSGi/Server 
  that we may need to keep track of, and there is a new initiative 
  from the banks to become involved in healthcare who are looking to 
  OHF for some leadership in open source healthcare software.

  We finished with a group photo. Eishay has posted the photo to 
  the ohf-dev blog (http://ohf-dev.blogspot.com) along with links
  to other photos on the OHF wiki.
