In consultation with the Application Area Director the following IPP WG
documents have been submitted for acceptance as Informational RFCs, to meet
the market requirements for a set of stable specifications.
They collectively define IPP/1.0:
* draft-ietf-ipp-req-03.txt
* draft-ietf-ipp-req-rat-04.txt
* draft-ietf-ipp-req-mod-11.txt
* draft-ietf-ipp-req-pro-07.txt
* draft-ietf-ipp-req-lpd-ipp-map-05.txt
A decision from the IESG can be expected in early 1999.
Discussion about update of the charter. This was not considered necessary,
but the following remaining tasks within the current charter were
identified:
* IPP URL Scheme
* Security solution using TLS (with or without use of SASL)
* Notifications
With these additions, IPP could progress to the standards track.
Presentation and discussion of combining Internet Fax and IPP.
Keith Moore suggested to make preparations for a separate IETF WG on this
subject, and plan for a BOF in the next IETF meeting. 10+ people indicated
that they are willing to participate in this work. This work is also of
potential interest to the ITU.
