Hello! Just an idea: The Swedish national EHR implementation is to my knowledge one of the largest one using archetypes, and it is based in large parts on industry components. May this serve as a kind of "landmark" project to carry the news to others? I hear that this runs quite well in practice? If I remember they have a workshop in Sweden about this in January, will this discuss possible communication activities?
