Summary of requirement pre-interview, by Reviewer:

Medidata is the clinical trials database selected by NCI for use at trial sites.  Medidata supports the import and creation of forms by Forms Authors based on common data elements.  Associated with this are likely to be a number of use cases on the functionality that Medidata needs for querying and importing CDEs and forms.  See attachments for additional information.

  One of the requirements currently not met is the need to be able to specify that a CDE on a form can have multiple answers selected from the enumerated value list.   Currently this is captured in the Question Instruction of the Form objects.  Users would like to be able to specify this for the CDE.  one approach is to create a Derived Data Element composed of the number of CDEs that are permitted in the response.  this can be supported in the current 11179 Ed 2 metamodel.
  Furthermore, it appears that what is needed is a collection of metadata "things" - forms, CDEs, etc. that are named and have privileges.  There are some in global scope (managed by a certain few people), a user can create any number of them, and that user can make his publicly available (say, give me John's public collections, then give me John's Breast Stdy 123 collection).  There would be a service (API) with these types of functions.
