I like Ron's suggestion for an errata sheet for PWG standards.
Should it be a single errata sheet for all PWG standards, or a separate one
for each standard that has one with the file name indicating which standard
it is an errata for and maybe the date in case the same standard has
additional errata.
Presumably the errata sheet(s) would go in the same directory as the
standards themselves, i.e.:
ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/standards/
What about the web page? How should it refer to the errata? Just add a line
next to the standard that has the errata?
Thanks,
Tom

Tom,
I suggest adding an errata sheet to the directory for this document
and use to keep track of corrections until the next update. Document
revisions should be kept to a minimum. Maybe 6 months to 1 year
between updates. Some reasonable number should be selected.

Carl,
I agree, that you've found a typo. I would hope that we could fix PWG
standard problems like this as soon as they are found and re-post on the PWG
web site.
How should we indicate such an update?
Do we want to wait for a short period of time to see if any others are
found?
Comments?
Thanks,
Tom

What does that mean: the "printer" is sending the Input-Documents?
Shouldn't that be "client"?

There is an IPP extension that does allow the client to specify the order
of documents. See:
Internet Printing Protocol (IPP):
Override Attributes for Documents and Pages
IEEE-ISTO Printer Working Group
Standard 5100.4-2001
February 7, 2001
(ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/ipp/new_EXC/pwg5100.4.doc [and .rtf and .pdf])
9.2 Send-Document and Send-URI Operation Requests
Attributes are added to the Operation Attributes group.
Group 1: Operation Attributes
"input-document-number" (integer):
The client OPTIONALLY supplies this attribute in order to
inform the printer about the order of documents when the
printer is sending the Input-Documents asynchronously. The
first Input-Document is 1, and subsequent Input-Documents are
numbered sequentially. If the value of "last-document" is
'true', then the value of this attribute is also the total
number of Input-Documents in the Job. If a client supplies
this attribute in one Send-Document or Send-URI operation in a
Job, it MUST send it in all such operations. A Printer deals
with missing Input-Documents in the same way as without this
attribute except that a time-out can occur with
Input-Documents anywhere in the Job. For example, a Printer
could receive Input-Documents 1 and 3 and not 2.

Documents within an IPP job do not have any sense of ordering. That is,
you don't say `send document 4', you just send a document. The order they
come out on paper is the same as the order in which you send them, except
that you might request collated or uncollated copies (i.e.: "a b a b" or
"a a b b") and how things are stapled together (i.e., are a and b stapled
together, or is a one bound thing and b another).
Wendy & Norm -- I was wrong about the complete lack of ordering. The spec
(section 2.4.2 of RFC 2911) says that the document order "MUST be" either
"a b a b" (collated) or "a a b b" (uncollated).
