I've started working on a page doing analysis of IGs against the rules defined by HTA. This apples for HL7 IGs. You'll notice an entry something like this in the table summary at the top of qs.html:

HTA is the "HL7 Terminology Authority" - aboard chartered Work Group that deals with HL7's use of external terminologies, either getting approval to use and determining how to use, or making feature / concept requests.

The intent of the page is to list all the external code system dependencies for an IG in one place, and ensure that we are meeting our licensing obligations. At the moment the page is very developmental, so it may yet be restructured etc. But you should all check that your LOINC and SNOMED CT copyright statements are correct, and this page is the most convenient way to do this.

Note that this page is also generated for affiliate IGs; we'll have to discuss the degree to which this is appropriate or not. It does not apply to IGs created by other organizations, though it may also be appropriate to do the license analysis for them too - they sill have to comply to code system licensing requirements
