Topic: Devdays breakout: packages and versioning

This is a call for participants for a possible breakout session on packages (and versioning). Problem space: FHIR offers a way package profiles and other conformance resources and have packages depend on other packages. This could solve a number of versioning issues.

Packages are not(?) described as part of R4 and tooling support is just starting up. Implementations will need to work with a mix of packaged and non-packaged 'stuff' for some time to come. What's the recommendation for modelers and/or implementers to deal with that?

Are there any fallback scenarios? Support for the pipe syntax for pointing from profile version to profile version is not supported very broadly either.

A day/time has not been set yet, but leaning towards Thursday afternoon.

Just found this thread and asked myself: did we ever come up for a resolution to track the origin package of a StructureDef on non-package aware servers?

meta.source?

or did I say this last time?

can't remember - that's why i'm asking. meta.source sounds great, so for the CG IG i would set meta.source to: hl7.fhir.uv.genomics-reporting|0.3to keep the version of the IG?

it's a uri... so either that canonical or we invent an npm pacakge scheme

just saw it on your slide. Your format for a package was: hl7.fhir.uv.genomics-reporting#0.3
Which leads to three possible formats:
