Every since I first came across openEHR I have intuitively felt that it is closer to the 'solution' than more static attempts at standardization. So why is progress so slow? I've appplied some lateral thinking to this, and come up with what many people on this list may (at best) think contrarian - but at the risk of being flamed.... The Case for NPfIT 2.0 www.nationalhealthexecutive.com page 52-53. (I'll go get my hard hat now...) Best wishes, Derek.

Hope you find it of some interest/value in explaining openEHR's place in the wider world. Please feel free to share..
