    Hi Folks,
    
    This is what I sent to the document repository:
    
    Dear OASIS,
    
    We the members of the Emergency Management Technical Committee would 
    like to express our concern for continuing the inclusion of Health 
    Information Technology issues in OASIS. Specifically, we want to 
    support an active liaison with the Health Information Technology 
    Standards Panel (HITSP) through Brett Trusko, and the funding 
    necessary for this liaison activity in order for such active 
    participation.
    
    This directly impacts the Emergency Data Exchange Language-Hospital 
    Availability Exchange (EDXL-HAVE) which our TC will be advancing for 
    OASIS approval as soon as possible. Please not that HITSP has 
    included EDXL-HAVE in its recommendations and has been supporting our 
    efforts, despite the delays necessary to fulfill the due diligence 
    that developing high quality OASIS standards requires.
    
    Respectfully,
    
    EM TC
    
    Cheers,
    Rex
