codes.xml and NIST XDS Toolkit for March connectathon

[Lynn Felhofer]

Connectathon test systems that exchange documents using the XD*, XC*, or MHD Profiles use a defined set of values for coded entries in DocumentEntry, SubmissionSet and Folder metadata and in FHIR DocumentReference DocumentManifest, and List Resources.     

For Connectathon testing, the value sets used for each code are defined in a codes.xml file contained in the NIST XDS Toolkit.  For first-time Connectathon participants, this is explained in more detail on this Connectathon Affinity Domain Metadata page.

On Monday, Sunil from NIST released NIST XDS Toolkit 7.6.0 for the March Connectathon.  See his announcement below.   IHE Technical Managers are working to deploy this release of XDS Toolkit (and other tools) for your use during Connectathon.  We expect it to be ready for you before Connectathon week; watch this email list for an announcement

The codes.xml file for use at the NA Connectathon in March is in  XDS Toolkit 7.6.0 and also attached below.   This version has CHANGES (fixes, additions, deletions from the codes previously used for the IHE Connectathons in Jan and Nov 2020.   Please use the new codes.xml in March.
