Hi folks, Sunday (30 June 2002)
I've just sent a final version of 'LDAP Schema for Printer Services' to
the Internet-Drafts editor and posted a copy on the PWG server in the
directory 'ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/ipp/new_LDAP/' in the file:
<draft-fleming-ldap-printer-schema-02.txt> (June 2002)
There have been a number of minor revisions, based on IESG 'last call'
comments. The document includes a change history appendix (to be
deleted before RFC publication - see below).
The technical content is entirely unchanged from the previous version.
As soon as this I-D is available in the IETF repository, we will request
that it be published as an Informational RFC.
Cheers,
- Ira McDonald (co-editor of LDAP printer schema)

Please place this document in the Internet-Drafts repository named:

Abstract
This document defines a schema, object classes and attributes, for
printers and printer services, for use with directories that support
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol v3 (LDAP-TS). This document is
based on the printer attributes listed in Appendix E of Internet
Printing Protocol/1.1 (IPP) (RFC 2911). A few additional printer
attributes are based on definitions in the Printer MIB (RFC 1759).
Thanks very much,
- Ira McDonald (co-editor of LDAP printer schema)
