HL7 Projects All HL7 work requires a TSC approved project.  Failure to file a project application results in a refusal to approve balloting of the resulting WG work product. All Normative Standards require a 1-2 year period as a DSTU. Two volunteer organizations are required to test the DSTU before Normative Balloting is permitted.
