Stream: IG creation
Topic: validation pack vs package
Eric Haas (Sep 20 2018 at 19:56):
What is the preferred downloadable artifact for implementers? we have definition files, validation packs and now package. My understanding was that the package covered it all? Is that all that is needed to do:
- validation
- dependencies for other IG
- registries
- other?
Is this correct. Because I will be updating my IGs to provide only a link to the package file?

ValidationPacks are going away - though implementers using an older tooling stack may still need them for a while. Package is what's needed for HL7-defined tooling. However, it only contains the JSON definitions. At least some implementers are likely to want the XML representations too so they can transform them or use them with other XML-centric tooling.

for now, the only thing is the package.tgz
