      1. Remove vsd-11.

      2. Keep the name of ValueSet.status as it is (no change).

      3. Change the definition of ValueSet.status to clarify that:
      a. ValueSet.status applies only to the value set definition (ValueSet.compose) and the associated resource metadata.
      b. Value set expansions are always considered to be stateless.

      4. Add "Value set expansions are always considered to be stateless" also to the Comments for ValueSet.expansion. Explain what "stateless" means in this regard.

      Comment:

      The Value Set Definition standard slated to go normative has an element called Activity Status. The Activity Status is the "state that represents the current state of the Value Set Definition in the context of the Value Set creation and release process. " Further, "Activity Status should track the status with regards to the Value Sets availability for use in a publishing environment context. Changes to this element should never result in a new Value Set Definition Version."

      Clarification needed in FHIR.

      1) ValueSet.status is the status of the entire valueset resource other than the expansion. This aligns with VSD using the word "definition" to mean the CLD/compose PLUS all the other non-expansion metadata. A valueset expansion is STATELESS.

      2)Suggest changing the FHIR invariant 11 to say that the valueset.status in a resource that is only an expansion SHALL be the valueset.status of the valueset resource when the expansion was created, so it can be any valid status value.

      Please note, all of the items in this ballot require resolution at the vocab work group call
