Hi,
If we keep it, remember it can be OPTIONAL to use but MUST be REQUIRED
to support (for the Client - that is, IPP Clients MUST honor and use
the redirect).
Does everyone want a new REQUIRED to implement application redirect
feature (for IPP Clients)?
I doubt it very much. And that's the test that the IESG will apply,
for interoperability.
Cheers,

If we keep it, we probably do need a redirect timeout parameter, or
to define what should happen if the redirect server doesn't handle the
notification...

We're not planning to.
