Hi folks,

[For review during next week's WIMS telecon on Wednesday June 22nd.]

I've just posted the Counter MIB with proposed final updates for all
remaining Last Call issues at:

Please see the Change Log below.  Note the new top-level 'Requirements'
section and please review carefully.  Jerry - there is a mapping of
every abstract counter to the corresponding MIB columnar object.

Cheers,
- Ira

16 June 2005 (v0.90)

- changed document status on cover page from 'Prototype' to 'Stable',
  to signal resolution of all 'last call' issues.
- deleted redundant 'transformer' type from 'IcSubunitTypeTC'
  (instead use existing 'interpreter' for any document conversion),

- revised 'IcCounterEventTypeTC' to add 'mediaUsedCreated' when a new
  media is first loaded into an Imaging System.

  'IcWorkTypeTC' enums to align with PWG Imaging System Counters spec,
  per LCRC-2 and LCRC-13.
- revised DESCRIPTION clauses of 'icKeyTable' (lookup) objects,
  to clarify default values and service/subunit mutual exclusion.
- revised DESCRIPTION clauses of 'icTimeTable' (availability) counters,

  Counters spec to section 2.2 'Imaging Terminology',
