RAD TF Maintenance 2019-2020
(Personally, I'd like to prioritize time to get a bunch of TI Profiles to FT (and maybe retire a couple) - KOD)
Target Dates:
- Publish CP Ballot in early-Jan 2018? (for CPs needed for IHE-Europe Connectathon in April 2018) (is this enough time?)
- Allow adequate time at the Nov F2F Meeting to prep for this
- Publish CP Ballot at end-of-April 2018
- Incorporate FT CPs into updated TF released July 2018
- Publish CP Ballot in early-Jan 2018? (for CPs needed for IHE-Europe Connectathon in April 2018) (is this enough time?)
Prioritize TI profiles: There are current a large number of Radiology profiles remain in TI for a long time. Sometimes new profiles reference transactions in these TI profiles, making understanding these new profiles challenging, involving reviewing multiple documents and find the relevant sections. To address this problem, we need to review them to determine if the profile should be promoted to Final Text or deprecated.
Number of outstanding CPs:
List of "priority" CPs:
List of "non-trivial" CPs:
List of outstanding items not yet submitted as CPs:
List of other maintenance tasks (proposed priority):
- Repeat TOP TEN CPs process
- note that the list of CPs is increasing, not decreasing
- CP author distribution
- Consider which might help a profile go to FT
- Consider organizing batches of CPs around themes (Profile or topic) so we can get relevant domain experts on that call and keep them engaged
- Add 2 (estimated) FT Supplements to TF (e.g. SWF.b, IID?), for this we need applicable CPs closed
- Review of old supps for retirement
- Profile Pages on Wiki
- Per the DCC, we are supposed to be including a short description on the wiki for each Supplement as it reaches TI stage. Radiology is 15 supplements behind and we need to get back up to date. The list of late updates is here (in orange): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1R5aw4hgezmyJpt8eRwk35S6ofu93YU9u03h4LdVOKzI/edit?hl=en&authkey=CID59tIJ#gid=2
- This will be enforced going forward. (8/25/2015) The short version goes here: http://wiki.ihe.net/index.php?title=Profiles
- This task is assigned to the Planning Cmte. Does the Tech Cmte want to adopt it?
- Suggest to DCC that maybe these should be posted to Wikipedia for greater visibility?
- Although Google finds it on wiki.ihe.net
- IHE would lose some control if it's on Wikipedia and they might not like our "practical details" section.
- In any case, Job #1 is to get the text written.
- In practical terms, the author of the profile likely has to be involved.
- Build it into the Webinar work?
- Assign this as offline work for any TC members who do not have a profile this cycle (Antje volunteers to help)
7. Risks
- Effort underestimated for other activities, less effort spend on maintenance
- Lack of appropriate knowledge, there is a lack of expertise in HL7v2 area
9. Tech Cmte Evaluation
Effort Evaluation (as a % of Tech Cmte Bandwidth):
Total Maintenance load
- 40%, including finalizing WIA
For reference from recent cycles:
| Cycle | 2016-17 | 2015-16 | 2014-15 | 2013-14 | 2012-13 | |
| Maint Allocated | 15% | 35% | 30% | 30% | 15% | |
| Maint Used | 36% | 45% | 62% | 29% | 19% |
Discussion
- What do we want to do in the normal time allotted.
