Re: HL7 too expensive, too complex and inconsistent
It is not a report that has much explicit knowledge to win for people in this list, but it tells us about the level of argumenting/thinking at decision makersIt reads to me like a bunch of web 2.0 e-business paradigm shifting consultants who got asked to write a report on e-health, so they've downloaded some organisational 'mission' statements, did a survey and then wrote it up. I think its level of insight is marginal. It tells us how you can possible effectively communicate with these people. And besides that, Openehr is mentioned in the European Community, that is a good thing, also, it can bring (important) people to think again about HL7 and OpenEhr.
