<DIV>Because just Rick and Ira called in today, we decided to try for another conference call next Monday, at 11 EDT. I will remind again later this week.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Rick will be going to the CIM associates meeting to, among other things, report on our progress and plans... and we do have significant plans that require effort by the WG members. The most imminent of these are the alerts indications. Some might consider reasonable handling of alerts even more important than the basic printer MOFS that Ira and Rick have gotten approved.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Please plan to join us next week, 24 March at 11 AM EDT. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Bill Wagner</DIV>

<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>You may now break out the moderately-priced champagne. The last four CRs embodying PWG's changes to the CIM model of the Printer device have been approved by the DMTF Schema subcommiittee. After only two years and ten months of fun, we made it. Hip Hip Hooray for us all! </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Future milestones: </FONT><BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>- When you see it in writing, when Schema v2.19 Experimental is published containing all our changes, you may break out the good champagne. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>- When the classes achieve Final status (requires two implementations), then we should all share the Dom Perignon. Jerry, can the budget withstand it? </FONT></P>
