Topic: String searches and punctuation
Lloyd McKenzie (Mar 14 2018 at 23:06):
I received a question from a customer about whether it's legal to treat a search of "OLeary" as a match on the name "O'Leary" based on the "string" search type rules. My reading is that right now it's not, but it's reasonable from them to want to do so. On the other hand, ignoring punctuation always could be problematic. Do we want to add an allowance for ignoring punctuation at server discretion?

yes

we have one more FHIr-I call to approve a bunch of small things like things like this before the normative ballot
Lloyd McKenzie (Mar 15 2018 at 02:25):
Do you have a list prepared we can ask people to review in advance?
Grahame Grieve (Mar 15 2018 at 02:26):
no. I suppose we should make one up...
Lloyd McKenzie (Mar 15 2018 at 02:29):
"We" is rarely a good holder of an action item :) Do you have time? Do you want Ewout to take it on (our official tracker wrangler :>) Do you need me to do it?
Grahame Grieve (Mar 15 2018 at 02:30):
of course I want someone else to do it. But it's actually feasible for me to do it. I'll probably be caught up sometime soon.... but @Ewout Kramer does this very well
Ewout Kramer (Mar 15 2018 at 09:04):
I'll go through the newest items on the list - maybe create a Big Final Blockvote with these issues?
Grahame Grieve (Mar 15 2018 at 09:39):
sounds like a great idea.Focus on stuff that we want to get in before we ballot normative
Lloyd McKenzie (Mar 15 2018 at 14:33):
It's a bit late to do it as a block vote - we normally try to have a week of review time. But we can at least do accelerated votes on things.

I like that idea. So, I'll formulate a resolution, add it to the list of "ready for vote" items, and then we can race through that list. That's probably 40 in total, so if we want to do all of them, we'd have to stick to 3 minutes on average ;-)
Ewout Kramer (Mar 15 2018 at 14:39):
Not infeasible, since most people will take less than 120 minutes to look at a block vote e-mail on the list ;-)
