Introduction
This page contains my annotations to the implementation guide for version 2.3.
The use of MS-WinWord to provide the information gets better. Even there is some room
left for improvements (The use of DOT-files and frames.).
Furthermore the repetition of (inconsistent) information could be eliminated by the use of
a special comprehensive HL7 database.
