I think a key motivation is to start engaging the HL7 community on this. 
  I think the existing W3C HCLS group has done a good job in the W3C 
community, but I personally think it would be very helpful to start 
raising the visibility within HL7.  That's my take anyway.  I don't know 
if others might see it differently.

Oh, I should have said, this is intended to be a HL7-W3C collaboration. 
  EricP was explaining on the call today that usually there are 
intellectual property (IP) policy issues in collaborating between 
standards organizations, but HL7 happens to have essentially the same IP 
policy as W3C, so we don't have that barrier in this case.
