It is a bit off topic, but Nictiz, will never declare their work as obsolete, how would you feel if you had for 7 years an excellent salary, and in the end your product is obsolete before it is finished? So, Nictiz will never allow any third party/standard, if it is Google, Microsoft, or OpenEhr, to have a fair chance on the market they control. The blame would be unbearable.
