These are good points, so I'm sharing with the whole gpc-dev group. I addressed #2 on AUI in my message of Mon, 03 Mar 2014 17:24:26 -0800.

This keeps everything in the ICD9 hierarchy order. In addition, if you know the ICD9 code for specific disease, you can easily browse through the tree and find it, because the codes are right there. #2) I thought I saw somewhere that you used the UMLS AUI in the concept path for the ICD9 codes. Is this way the GPC intends to generate all terminologies? It's perfectly acceptable, and I seem to recall a discussion about this a long time ago(years, not months), but I can't remember the outcome. We normally put the name in the path, not the AUI.
