New refsets release loaded on the SNOMED Browser
The Canadian NRC has asked Suzy to raise this proposal on their behalf, and so Suzy will present this at the next TRAG meeting:
1. Before sending the Refsets Release announcement if the refsets could be loaded in the SNOMED Browser, that would be great. This way, stakeholders would be able to browse the content from the tool they are used to.
2. Add to the announcement that the refsets can be browsed through the Browser as well as they can be accessed through MLDS.
3. Send the announcement.
Please send any thoughts on this beforehand if you would like to - basically this would require us to include the addition of all refsets to browser into our formal release processes, as so far they have been added as and when available, and on an informal basis (without comms, etc). So the question here is not whether or not we can do the process above, as this is very simple - it's more a question of whether or not we think having the refsets visible in the browser is a useful feature, and not misleading in any way?
Thanks very much,
Andrew

I agree with @Mikael Nyström (Unlicensed)
Hi,
I think the Release team should add couple of steps in the process, and add the above activities in a standardized release cycle so stakeholders can expect the same availability from release a product to another release product. Usually the Browser technical team is quite quick to load content when it is beneficial to stakeholders.
I think @Linda Parisiens proposal is a useful proposal as long as the steps of inserting the refset(s) are the last steps in the release cycle.
I believe that the announcement that a refsets (or whatever) is ready to download should be sent as soon as it is possible to download the refset, without any delay of first loading the refset in a browser or creating any other kind of alternative release form. In that way the announcement is not delayed if there are problems with the browser or similar. However I agree that it is beneficial to include in the announcement that the refset will soon be available in the browser.
