    Description

      This was discussed during the "Breaking Change" Birds of a Feather during the Sept 2022 WGM in Baltimore.

      The section "rules for inter-version change" is broken and needs to be revised.
      The section should also clearly indicate what kind of interoperability the HL7 community strives for; whether FHIR intends implementation or data representation based interoperability.

      I think FHIR should strive for data representation based interoperability; (normative) data from one version should be understood (parsed, interpreted) by implementations of a newer version.
