Taking HL7 to the next level.
For HL7 to reach the next level of standards capability, the organization must continue their model-centric development process so systems using the standards can achieve interoperability--sematic as well functional. The HL7 Message Development Framemwork specifies thi process detail and anchors future HL7 standards with a common reference information model. That model will evolve through a process of discussion, amendment, voting to continuously harmonize proposals from committees that have specific spheres of knowledge.
