Agenda & Notes
Review last week's outstanding TODO's (OpenMRS 2.1 Planning)
TODO: Burke to schedule a dev forum to revisit future release process/scheduling/strategy
TODO: Schedule next round of Allergies tasks (don't drop the ball -Darius)
TODO: Sara will email TW & Bhamni team to ask for which week later in October works and we'll swap topics
"Content Modules": Can we define a standardized pattern by which a module could include metadata
Background
A lot of content with OpenMRS is used within the scope of a particular "program" – e.g., for HIV Care, for Chronic Care, for Tuberculosis, etc.
It's difficult for implementations to easily manage, communicate, exchange, or update the metadata related to a particular "program"
For example, someone looking for best practice (or any material) to treat condition X doesn't have a clear place to go to find examples of what others are doing
We'd like to give people a recipe for a new study or program to create X, Y, and Z and then package those into a collection of content (metadata, forms, and reports) that could be delivered to a system. Ideally, there would be a path to update these as well.
Design
Example from KenyaEMR (email to dev list from Rowan)
OpenMRS Content-Related Application Particulars = .OCRAP files
TODO
Get KenyaEMR team to describe how bundles are delivered
How are they packaged (do they have to be baked into core applicationContext? Delivered via module?)
What infrastructure changes exist to incorporate the bundle
Schedule design call(s) on how 2.x UI should handle the bundled content and including programs
After action review
Cancelled due to lack of interest in reviewing ourselves
What did you expect to happen?
What actually happened?
What can we do better?
