Hi Thomas,

 

I agree that that the main talks on the IHTSDO meetings are centered on the
international release and the releases from the national release centers.
However, I am quite sure that the reason is that there are still mainly
representatives from IHTSDO and the national release centers on the IHTSDO
meetings. It sadly still seems to be difficult to get vendors and other
interested people from outside UK and US to the IHTSDO meetings.

 

                             Greetings,

                             Mikael

I have to say that it is my impression nearly all activity IHTSDO talks
about seems to be centred on either the international release aka 'the core'
or the national release centres. I have not heard a single presentation or
discussion talking about any details of lower-than-national level
extensions, although there are examples in the meta-data map (from Nehta).
But I was not trying to imply that this was policy in any way, only that I
suspect that the thinking has not yet engaged with local and other kinds of
extensions. I am certainly very happy if I am wrong, and everyone (but me)
already knows how this should work...

Hi Thomas,

 

As another member of IHTSDO Technical Committee I would like to ask from
where you have got your impression that RefSets should mainly be maintained
by the national release centers, because that is not at all my impression.
Some of the national release centers, like NHS in UK, maintain
Subsets/RefSets, but I have never heard anything about that only the
national release centers should create and maintain RefSets. My impression
is that whoever that find it useful to create and maintain an own RefSet
should be able to do it.

 

The only requirement to create a RefSet is the technical requirement to have
an own namespace to create the RefSet into. However, all organizations and
persons with a valid SNOMED CT license can get an own namespace. 

 

(I have my own namespace, so if I would I could immediately produce and
release as many RefSets that I want.)
