So I'm not sure where to ask this question, but it might as well be here, I think.

Grahame Grieve (Oct 06 2019 at 11:35):

There's this file here: https://github.com/FHIR/ig-registry/blob/master/fhir-ig-list.json

Grahame Grieve (Oct 06 2019 at 11:35):

it's got 2 lists in it:
- a list of all the published IGs, which we are working on growing
- a list of the feeds that you can use to watch new publications of IGs

we're happy with how that's managed - people make a PR through github

Grahame Grieve (Oct 06 2019 at 11:37):

but at Atlanta a few of us were reviewing this file, and wondered whether we should rename it (would keep it in the same place, same management), just rename the file and/or split it into 2 files.

Grahame Grieve (Oct 06 2019 at 11:37):

We didn't make any decision, just decided to ask the question. So, does anyone have any opinion on this?

The designer in me leans towards splitting, but I don't have any reason beyond gut reaction and I certainly don't feel strongly.

Ward Weistra (Oct 07 2019 at 07:40):

I think that was the consensus here too. It sounds cleaner to split it up (or at least reflect both uses in the file name), but keeping it together wouldn't be a problem either. Right @Martijn Harthoorn ?
