    Onboarding Procedures Document:

  4. CPB and Working Groups Update
    Operations - membership/voting/Discourse/Confluence/Jira - everyone should have an account on every communication channel at this point
    Regarding Finance and Roles:

    • Issue: CKA meetings are currently paused due to financial considerations and no yet reply from CPB in this aspect for all the stated roles. A file is being prepared and available here Content Management Processes(in draft and waiting review).

    • Action Steps for CPB and CPXP Members:

      • CPB and CPXP members are encouraged to review the document shared above (content management process)

      • Discussion of the document is scheduled for the next CPB meeting in January.

    • Sharing with Rachel (openEHR CEO):

      • The document is being shared with Rachel as she requires it for the JIC (Joint Initiative Council) application.

    • CPB operations, structure and organization:

      • The document at CPB Operations s currently being structured and organized to align with the current process and organization of CPB.

      • Voting Process Enhancement: if the current state of discourse voting is effective, it will be adapted to the file in Confluence. This represents a new process for voting.

      • Integration of Jira and Confluence: CPB is considering incorporating Jira and Confluence as part of their workflow, specifically using a Kanban board setup.

      • Sharing Minutes: New meeting minutes will be shared, but initially, only a closed group (CPB & XP members) will have access to review them while in draft mode.

      • Orientation Meeting: Plans are in place to organize an orientation meeting or create a video tutorial on how to use Confluence and Jira. This initiative aims to ensure that everyone involved becomes familiar with the tools.

  5. JIC approach (Welcome to Joint Initiative Council)
    The Joint Initiative Council for Global Health Informatics Standardization works to bring together stakeholders to create and promote international standards in health informatics. openEHR wants to be part of this and Rachel and Stefan are working together to make this possible.
    Rachel has requested the organization of clinical content documentation, emphasizing the removal of outdated information and overall restructuring so they can have better access to the documentation that they need for their future presentation and for overall use within the community since its public access. Heather suggested leveraging Silje's past efforts in reorganizing Confluence to avoid duplicating efforts.

  6. Sponsor industry funding for creation of clinical models
    This was mentioned by Rachel that there's ideas about having sponsorship for creating new or maintaining archetypes. Heather and John highlighted challenges in securing funding for specific archetypes, emphasizing the need for use cases, research, drafting, and community collaboration with the right experts. Wouter emphasized the importance of aligning funding with Clinical Knowledge Manager (CKM) needs to avoid misallocation. To address funding challenges, the proposal involves reusing a previous process or outlining specific needs for archetypes, including funding, experts, domain knowledge, and time. Community input, particularly in the form of "wanna sponsor this specific archetype?” , is being considered. A draft approach for potential sponsors is being explored to better understand and communicate the associated issues. Wouter emphasized the need for a well-defined plan when accepting funds, and perhaps we could consider on including acknowledgment of sponsors in archetype body.
