If I were to see "printer-map-uri" I would assume I could point my browser
at thar uri and see were the printer is located on a MAP!!


What about being real straight-forward and calling it one of the following:


TLS-Printer-uri
Printer-TLS-uri


Actually, secure-printer-uri is exactly what is says it is and printer-uri
says
nothing about security.  I'm not opposed to calling it what it is and
living with
the implications of that.

In Washington and before, there has been discussion that calling
the second uri, "printer-secure-uri" makes it sound like the first
"printer-uri" is not secure.  So we've been searching for a better
term.
Scott and Steve came up with the term (drum roll):
   "Mutual Authentication and Privacy (MAP).
So ok to call the second uri Printer attribute: "printer-map-uri"?
It will be put right after the first uri: "printer-uri" secion
4.4.2 in the Model document.
SEND COMMENTS TO DL, SO WE CAN FORWARD THE INTERNET-DRAFT THIS WEEK
TO THE IESG.
Thanks,
Tom
