Activities Update

The 0.6 version was released on 04/11/2008. The builds were for platforms Windows, Mac & Linux. HL7 tooling committee & CfH are actively testing the final released product. The SMD project site https://staticmodeldesigner.projects.openhealthtools.org/ was made

public on 03/10/08. The site is used for issue tracking based on the testing feedback. The upload of code & binaries are held due IPR/Licensing issues in using HL7 artefacts

(MIF schemas, coremifs and documents).
