I know this has probably been mentioned before, but as I am getting
more into implementation I am finding the use of Get-Attributes on
both the Printer and Job object to be ackward with regard to
implementation. It is the only case of a method being dependent
on the object and introduces some special case processing that could
be avoided by having 2 distinct methods. It seems that with regard
to consistency it would be better to have 2 methods that are
similar and consistent with the other methods (Get-Printer-Attributes and
Get-Job-Attributes). In addition, I think, at least based on my limited
experience, that perhaps the implementations could be a little simpler.

Since part of the reason for prototyping is to provide feedback to the
spec developers I thought I would mention this. Steve
