Existing tools that are massaging the regex will cease to work if they are given a full regex. It would be a breaking change, so I think it should be spelled out in the specification. Otherwise, tools are going to have to try to do some clever guesswork to decide whether a given pattern is intended to match the full archetype id or just the domain concept part of it. - Peter _______________________________________________ openEHR-technical mailing list openEHR-technical@openehr.org http://lists.chime.ucl.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/openehr-technical
