Resending since it seems that the original email got dropped
somewhere. From today's call, it sounded like the JS library at
https://github.com/williamkapke/ipp and/or
https://github.com/sealsystems/node-ipp has a representation that's
already along the right lines, but there might be some cases that they
don't address. What do people think about formalizing something based
on those?
Thanks,
Benjamin

Rather than inventing yet another new way to describe printers and states and jobs and so on, I've been advocating for building on all the PWG's hard work with IPP. The sticking point is that binary IPP frames aren't very ergonomic to work with in Javascript. Has there ever been any consideration of defining a canonical JSON encoding? If we brought forward a proposal for such a thing in the next couple of months, would there be interest in moving it through the whole standardization process?
