Transition to R5 #126

Closed alysivji closed 1 year ago

alysivji commented 1 year ago

FHIR R5 was released -- it is now the default version for the documentation pages on HL7.org.

This library has R4 has the default. What's the transition plan for moving to R5? What can I do to ensure my project uses R4 until I'm ready to switch to R5?

Thanks!

Also curious. Here is the diff between 4 and 5: http://hl7.org/fhir/5.0.0-draft-final/diff.html#r4r5

Found previous discussion in README.rst:

FHIR release R4B is coming with not that much changes over the release of R4. So we decided not to create separate sub-package for R4 like STU3, instead there just overlaps on existing R4. This also means that in future, when we will work on R5; there will be sub-package for R4B and no R4. We suggest you to try make a plan to be upgraded to R4B. Here you could find related information dealing-strategy-R4-R4B.
