If you mean the meta-format, it's still embryonic and a moving target.
I can send you the PIT specs (just a few A4 pages) and the HL7 specs (several 
thousand pages just for one single version of it) if you like, but I would 
strongly propose to help discussing the XML meta format instead so that 
gnumed (and others) only have to "learn" a single format and leave the 
message parsing to the universal parser modules converting those other 
formats into our meta format and viceversa.
