Hi Jay and Paul,

Yes, I'm interested to hear more about the 'decision' to do
IPPv2 on XML in Maui. It sure didn't widely penetrate the
mailing list for the rest of us people. And it sure TOTALLY
breaks backward compatibility.

Cheers,
- Ira McDonald (High North)

Paul,

Sorry, but I wasn't able to attend the Maui meeting, so perhaps
you can clarify something about the perceptions of "IPP v2"
for me.

The way I read your message (below), IPP v2 will have a totally
different encoding than IPP v1 (ie, non-standard BER-like
quasi-binary encoding vs. structured text).

Is this correct?
