I have the impression that there is several HL7 initiatives going on at the same time. I suppose the Care2x project could do with a bit more coordination on this part. Can we use the HL7 Toolkit (http://hl7toolkit.sourceforge.net/) translation to PHP as a base and work from there? Code is available in the care2002/Care2002/classes/php_hl7 CVS repository (browseable from http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/care2002/Care2002/classes/php_hl7/).
Let's please join efforts and not waste energy doing similar things... it's all Free (as in free speech!).

One of the conditions of the hospital to start a pilot was to implement a HL7 interface. I programmed a HL7 interface the last weeks to import HL7 files from an administration system to care2x. At the moment I support the ADT messages ADT^A01 (admission), ADT^A02 (transfer), ADT^A04 (outpatient admission), ADT^A08 (change) and ADT^A03 (discharge). The interface� runs very stable at the moment. I have a further agreement with the University of Mannheim which will complete the work on a HL7 Server for care2x using my programming with one of there students (Diplom).
