Hi,

Reminder that we should have a WIMS-CIM telecon this week.

A suggested topic:

* Reappraisal of the DMTF/PWG CIM Refresh alliance
  - The modelling is getting progressively more convoluted
    and our original objective (essentially comprehensive
    CIM mapping of print device and print service standards)
    is not feasible.
  - Rick can give us more details from the CIM Core WG meeting
    last week, but the bottom line is that we must simplify
    (i.e., delete more properties) the print subunits or we'll
    certainly be forced to separate capabilities and possibly
    separate settings classes - defeating the CIM modelling
    usefulness entirely.

Cheers,
- Ira
