The DSTU2 ImplementationGuide requires purpose for all resources registered in a package. I'm not sure what purpose I should use for a SearchParameter resource. The valid codes are: example, terminology, profile, extension, dictionary, logical. I tried to look at Argonaut (Data Query 1.0.0) for an example, but its ImplementationGuide-ig.xml does not include values for purpose at all (despite it be 1..1).

I thought we made it example since it represents an instance describing the expectation for an implementation following the IG

@Eric Haas - The search parameters weren't marked as example in the ImplementationGuide-ig.xml I got from downloading the XML package or validator.pack on the downloads page:

That said, I see the sense in your logic. Absent any stronger opinions on the matter, I'll go with example. Thanks!

I'd go with profile but it's a toss-up

For now, I've coded it as example, but I can change that. Follow up question is what would be the appropriate purpose code for OperationDefinitions and Conformances?
