    Title: RE: [emergency] Naming Conventions

    Another path through this mess is what CDISC has done.  The FDA published a set of rules for submitting drug information electronically so a pharma could get its hot drug approved.  CDISC [clinical data information standard consortium] was formed from vendors, pharma companies and others to jointly develop an implementation standard using xml.  They have defined the tree structure with controlled names.  NCI used common data elements (CDEs that I spoke about) to handle the data element meta data, the instances of data within a specific node of the tree.  The fact that there were real world objects [forms and data on them] enabled this project to move forward pretty quickly.  I have been involved in too many data element definition project for DOD in the past that tried to do it all and failed miserably because real world apps and their users were not involved.
