I just came back from a conference put on by CIHI and HL7 Canada and they were displaying HL7 version 3. It looks like HL7 is moving in the XML direction. I definately agree that the XML files are alot bigger and are going to chew up bandwith. I know that some of the province level applications are using V3 and more are looking at implementing it.
Is Quovadx going to build some default translation that can convert V3 to V2 or vice versa?
Thanks,
