- some IP approvals have been gained.
- we discussed doing a release. We decided to wait until after the 
  connectathon so that when we do a release, we can claim IHE certification
  The release will be in Late Jan. IBM Almaden are going to consider
  resourcing the release engineering of this.
  
- Generally the IHE certification process is going well. We have a new
  partner, pmsi.com, who have already signed up, and need to work with 
  us to get certification
  
- we will try to get as much communication with IHE partners done through
  the public forums as possible
  
- There will be NIHN demo (including OHF code) in late Jan.

- We discussed changing to Java 1.5, and introducing OSGi dependency. 
  We will not do this in the current IHE code - this is effectively a 
  release that we will maintain through until after the HIMSS demo. For
  other code, or subsequent versions/releases of the IHE code, we will
  definitely adopt OSGi and Java 5 features. Grahame to draft a public
  policy statement about this
  
- t-shirts - open for another week, Eishay to update the blog
  
- we have had some discussions with APHL LIMS - progressing OK. they 
  may choose to work more closely with us
  
- openEHR - they are intersted in subversion, and maintaining their 
  own bug systems etc. We are open to this, further discussions needed.
  In the long term, we would like to move all our stuff off cvs into 
  subversion. IHE code after HIMSS, other things potentially earlier
