IMHO the advantages of data-sharing do not apply as much for patient data, 
unless
LDAP is used for some centralised demographics service.

The PUPIC rears its head again: we need to settle this before spreading data 
across different
services as Karsten has pointed out.

Does anyone have access to a set of demographics data to test various PUPIC 
ideas on? 

What I propose to do this is: extend the gmDemographics business object to 
support
both "LDAP" and "SQL" data sources, then a config options allows the 
specification of
the contacts data source, and later, the demographics data source as a URL.
