Each term has a unique identifier and a URL that can be used as a tool to enhance reading comprehension of documents by hyperlinking terms to their definition. The aim is to create a stable and sustainably governed glossary of community accepted terms and definitions, and to keep it relevant by maintaining it as a ‘living document’ that is updated when necessary. The URL for each term contains a link to a discussion page to complete the feedback loop with the community of users. The glossary is developed and maintained by RDC's Standards & Interoperability Committee (RDC-SINC) in collaboration with CASRAI.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:13px"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:13px"><b><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:Verdana,sans-serif">Walter Stewart, Coordinator<u></u><u></u></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size:13px"><img border="0" width="255" height="78" alt="logo-light-big (2)" class="CToWUd" apple-inline="yes" id="80EB2EAD-3FC7-4D27-9CD2-63BC4748914F" apple-width="yes" apple-height="yes" src="cid:image001.png@01D0D8B8.D1B13CA0"></p></div></div>
