  • Next message: Hastings, Tom N: "IPP> NOT - "The 'ippget' Delivery Method for Event Notifications" docu ment downloaded"

    I've down loaded the updated "The 'indp' Delivery Method for Event
    Notifications and Protocol/1.0" document. The versions with revisions are
    also in the .zip file for next week's IPP WG meeting and are on the agenda.

    The major change was to add the necessary material to be able to register
    the 'indp' scheme with IANA (see section 12). Also added client and Printer
    conformance requirements for using the 'indp' method, (see section 11).

    This document has been in the Area Director's queue since last August, so
    this February 28, 2001 version will replace the August 29, 2000 version
    according to the IETF procedures for this situation.

    The files are at:

    Here is the Abstract:

            The IPP notification extension document [ipp-ntfy] defines
    operations that a client can perform in order to create Subscription Objects
    in a Printer and carry out other operations on them. The Subscription Object
    specifies that when one of the specified Events occurs, the Printer sends an
    asynchronous Event Notification to the specified Notification Recipient via
    the specified Delivery Method (i.e., protocol).
            The notification extension document [ipp-ntfy] specifies that each
    Delivery Method is defined in another document. This document is one such
    document, and it specifies the 'indp' Delivery Method and Protocol. This
    Delivery Method is a simple protocol consisting of a single operation: the
    Send-Notifications operation which uses the same encoding and transport as
    IPP. This document defines version '1.0' of the protocol.
            For this Delivery Method, when an Event occurs, the Printer
    immediately sends (pushes) an Event Notification via the Send-Notifications
    operation to the Notification Recipient specified in the Subscription
    Object. The Event Notification content consists of Machine Consumable
    attributes and a Human Consumable "notify-text" attribute. The Notification
    Recipient returns a response to the Printer.

    Please send comments to the mailing list.

    Thanks,
    Tom
