I can be available almost any time as long as I have a time to 
schedule. Preference would be Sat. 10 am.  Just so you have something 
definitive to work with, I'm providing the following summary:    (01)

The key Emergency-specific standards which will include an 
ontological representation that will be updated (versioned) over time 
is the OASIS Emergency Data Exchange Language Reference Information 
Model (EDXL-RIM).    (02)

EDXL-RIM is intended to formalize the ontological foundation as well 
as controlled vocabularies for all EDXL Standards.    (03)

It is envisioned to be produced in discrete modules which allows the 
OASIS Emergency Management Technical Committee's EDXL-RIM Subcomittee 
to work on smaller units than a larger, overarching and comprehensive 
document.    (04)

The first unit will focus on EDXL-DE and the ValueListURN concept 
that allows any published and maintained list (taxonomy or 
terminology) to be used to specify such items as Event (or Incident) 
Types, Organizational Roles and Responsibilities, Equipment and 
Facilities names and descriptions.    (05)

EDXL-RIM is taken from and abstracted from the EDXL family of 
Standards that currently includes:
        EDXL-Disribution Element ( EDXL-DE) for packaging and routing 
emergency messages;
        EDXL-Hospital AVailability Exchange (EDXL-HAVE) for standard 
hospital system (emergency) status report messages;
        EDXL-Resource Messaging (EDXL-RM) for the exchange of 
emergency logistics information messages.    (06)

Prospective new EDXL Submissions for developing Standards:
        EDXL-Situation Reporting (EDXL-SR) for situation report 
messages (submission process underway); and,
        EDXL-Emergency Patient Tracking (EDXL-EPT) to provide 
emergency patient identity information exchange.    (07)

Cheers,
Rex    (08)
