The Profiling FHIR page is Normative and has a statement that a Profile is represented as a structure definition with kind = constraint. But all of the Profiles that I've seen have kind = resource. I'm assume that the page is incorrect but wanted to verify. (GF#25043)

If the profiles aren't defining a resource, then the profile is wrong...

hmm, all of the US Core profiles have that...unless I'm reading them wrong

I think that's broken. @Grahame Grieve ?

I checked earlier profiles and they were all the same - kind value="resource". Maybe it's supposed to refer to the derivation since that has a value of constraint?

Perhaps

yes it's supposed to refer to derivation not kind. Specifically, this is a mismatch between generic language and a specific element name. We should definitely have a task to fix it

I created a GForge item already.
