Hi Bill,
I don't see why you suggested that the IPP WG is "running
out of steam?"
IPP Everywhere is proceeding on track. Our last PWG
spec (Everywhere itself) is now in PWG Last Call. Our
two related IETF specs (IPPS URI and LDAP Printer) are
moving along as expected.
Mike and I have every intention of proceeding w/ IPP
Multifunction work and new specs.
Cheers,
- Ira
