Hi Joe,
There might be a bit of "semantic conflict" here :-)
"taxonomies" in XBRL are a bit different from what you're probably
thinking of in relation to the FEA & DRM. XBRL taxonomies are
somewhat specific to the XBRL world. They are financial concept
reporting vocabularies based on the XBRL framework. They are more
grounded in specific technology than the more typical conceptual
"taxonomy". XBRL taxonomies are actual sets of XML and XSD files. They
tend to be geo-political or domain-based vocabularies and are often
extended/narrowed for specific industries or sub-domains.
Just FYI - XBRL does not follow typical XML language construction -
it's quite unique.
Here are some good references:

Harm,
Your mention of the first
national XBRL taxonomy in the Netherlands is very interesting, and
would be beneficial for us to know in the US as we are in the midst of
a very large governmentwide initiative called the Data Reference Model
(DRM[1]), which is part of the Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA).
One of the DRM's 3 primary areas is Data Context, which involves
taxonomies.
Can you please send
information to this list (the E-Gov TC list) regarding the XBRL
taxonomy?
Thanks very much,
Joe Chiusano
I see this group is in a desperate need for a
face to face meeting with some spare time at the bar. No lack of
subjects there.
Harm jan van Burg
not wanting to kill any discussion, by the way.
Sorry for the lack of e-mails from my part. I
had the introduction of the first national XBRL taxonomy overhere, a
trip abroad and day's with not enough hours. I will come back to the
list with some ideas one of these days
Peter,
Remember the tobacco industry -
and a row of company executives entoning before Congress - 'Nicotine is
not addictive'?
If you have not already seen it -
check out the DVD "Supersize Me!", and notice how he became to crave
eating the fat and sugar laden food that was making him ill - and felt
a high when he did.
Then ask yourself - why are 60%
percent of Americans clinically overweight, and for some minorities
this reaches over 80% for members over the age of 30? Target - lower
income brackets - mass market.
50% of Americans used to smoke,
with higher majority in the low-income, lesser educated.
Errrr, Kimosabi, is there some
correlation here?
Just what additives are going into
processed food - and what are we not being told?

That would be "nationwide
unhealthy service", no? or are you really suggesting a national policy?
The food giants actually working with government in formulating
unhealthy policy? Surely not....
But some would argue that the US
has the worlds finest National Unhealthy services - and that
giant corporations are toiling
night and day to ensure citizen remain unhealthy so they
can exploit the situation for
profit.
Self-maintenance can obviously
save you a bunch of money here....

Doesn't want
to imply...that the US has a national (read "public", certainly in
Europe) health service? rather than a nationwide health service...

I believe it may simply
be a matter of semantics. The person who made the statement (or as I
understand the statement to mean) was Mary Forbes. She said that the
name change was made because they did not want to imply ______ (and
it's that blank that I don't recall).
Hope that helps - at
least a bit.
Hi Joe, I suppose that change
means something, but I don't know what it is?

I understand from yesterday's Data Reference Model (DRM) Public Forum
that the National Health Information Network is now going to be referred
to as the Nationwide Health Information Network.
