Hi, One thing I know that in this time frame CEN/TC251, HL7 and ISO/TC215 co-operate harmonized standards are/will be produced.
It is without any doubt that nothing is forever. We expect that our co-operation will produce a series of standards in Medical Informatics that will last longer than ever and will be able to evolve and improve. How many alternate and competing HTML (or XTML) or TCP/IP standards do you want?
