    Well, IPP stands for Internet Prininting Protocol. If we wants to describe
    to the world
    how we think Internet print should work, I think it's a design fail to use
    a technology
    that won't work, i.e. mandatory a method that won't go from the outside to
    the inside
    of the firewall. I have nothing against the INDP method, but I think we
    have to keep
    in mind what we first tried to solved, i.e. "how to print over the
    Internet":

    Would you be so kind as to explain what you believe is the "99%" case?
    I'm confused about what *most* PWG participants believe are the *real*
    use cases for IPP. (I guess I've been a bit confused about this since
    the very beginning.)
