Key Discussion Points
-
Ongoing Technology Roadmap - an update as to what has happened in 2026 and what will be happening in 2027
-
Community content use/distribution - continued conversation on how to wrap an external extension into a national edition (LOINC being the obvious first use case)
-
Collaborative authoring - continuation of this discussion and what it means for terminology management software
-
AI & Terminology Management:
-
AI-assisted coding to uplift the existing tooling (like Dion’s work to improve the RVF), and
-
AI-assisted terminology maintenance workflows (e.g. ”rebasing" with the monthly International updates, constructing and maintaining a “universal Edition”)
-
AI-assisted quality assurance - terminology conformance to editorial policy
-
-
Shared Validation framework:
-
Will performance improvements to the RVF be sufficient to then consider it fit for purpose as a Shared Validation tool?
-
Or would a re-write still be required to reduce complexity of use/maintenance?
-
Is this even still a requirement? Or are we now in a position where most users who originally needed this are now within the MS or other service provisions?
