Firefly has told us that version-linking (as an automated feature) is a common request, so that is on their roadmap for release. I'm not sure if that applies to just ValueSet and CodeSystem, or also to Profiles.

Currently to do so to date has been very tricky, it's an entirely manual process with our current tooling. We're also not sure what the best practices are internationally, we'll take a look at this

Hi Erik,

Yes, version should be populated in the conformance resources (profiles, extensions, valuesets, etc.) in an IG.

Depending on the tooling used to create the implementation guide, this can be done automatically (along with selecting to propagate date, contact, context, jurisdiction, license, publisher, copyright, and status elements). My guess is that between PSCA 1.0.0 and PSCA 2.1.1 Infoway changed the tooling, and forgot to account for the difference in capabilities.

However, if PSCA 2.1.1 is still in draft, this is an easy and quick fix for them.

Hi,

I saw that most of the releases of IG do not contain the version for each of the profiles. I was wondering if there was a general guidance that prevented populating them.

Here is an example:
1- For composition-ca-ps 1.0.0 : simplifier.net/packages/ca.infoway.io.psca/1.0.0/files/801571/~json
version is populated with "version": "1.0.0"
Thus, we can do a $validate operation with fhir.infoway-inforoute.ca/io/psca/StructureDefinition/composition-ca-ps|1.0.0
1- For composition-ca-ps 2.1.1-DFT : simplifier.net/packages/ca.infoway.io.psca/2.1.1-dft/files/2996015/~json
version is not present
Thus, we cannot resolve a $validate operation with fhir.infoway-inforoute.ca/io/psca/StructureDefinition/composition-ca-ps|2.1.1-DFT

So I'm curious if it could not be added as part of the elements filled by default.

Thanks,
Erik
