    Hugo,

    Please, please(!) do not send large documents as email attachments
    on the mailing list. Instead, post them on the PWG server and send
    out pointers to those documents.

    Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.

If there are multiple uri's where to download a given set of client print support files, each is listed in a separate value.
