why is this a good change? I believe it is a wrong change to make. And which committee authorised it?

@grahamegrieve Sorry if I skipped a step, Grahame! I'm used to the UTG/Terminology procedures, where a PR is created before submitting an issue for review. The FHIR ticket associated with this change (https://jira.hl7.org/browse/FHIR-42696) has been triaged as Highest priority since last September, so I though that creating a PR for it might help people evaluate it and then decide if it's a worthwhile change or to reject it. I'll move this PR back into Draft status and -- if you'd like -- I could close it and/or delete it as well.

As to why it is a good change, other entries on http://hl7.org/fhir/R5/codesystem-namingsystem-identifier-type.html use absolute URLs (http://unitsofmeasure.org), even for HL7 resources (http://www.hl7.org/Special/committees/vocab/table_0396/index.cfm), which is why I assumed (incorrectly?) that the reference to rdf.html should be absolute as well. Since these local references are not converted into links, I was unsure if a reader would know to copy and paste the local reference into the current URL to get to that location in the FHIR documentation. But if this is the standard for local references in FHIR, then absolutely this entry should follow that guideline as well, and the proposed change (https://jira.hl7.org/browse/FHIR-42696) should be rejected.

This should be a hyperlink rather than just writing out the full URL.

This should be a hyperlink rather than just writing out the full URL.

Thanks, Lloyd! Do you have an example of what this should look like? I'm not sure how to insert a hypertext into a value attribute.

(I was also following the convention currently used by other definitions in this field, such as for uri and v2csmnemonic -- maybe we should change those as well?)
