  • Next message: Hastings, Tom N: "IPP> NOT - Last Call comments from PWG meeting on "IPP: The 'ippget' N otification Delivery Method for Event Notifications" closing on March 26, 2001"

    I've extracted the edits that Don made at the IPP WG meeting in Tampa so
    that the mailing list can see them regarding the "Internet Printing Protocol
    (IPP): Printer Installation Extension" out for IPP WG Last Call closing on
    March 26, 2001. These comments are being treated as Last Call comments.
    Send any comments on these comments to the entire mailing list.

    1. In Table 1 - "client-print-support-files-supported" attribute fields, in
    the "digital-signature" entry, there can be other signature values, so
    change "Valid values are:" to "Valid value include:" to give:

    One REQUIRED LOWER-CASE 'keyword' string identifying the mechanism used to
    ensure the integrity and authenticity of this set of Client Print Support
    Files. Valid values include: 'smime', 'pgp', 'dss', and 'xmldsig' which are
    defined in [RFC2634], [RFC1991], [dss], and [xmldsig], respectively. In
    addition, the special keyword value: 'none' is valid.

    2. In 3.3.1 Get-Client-Print-Support-Files Request, Target:, the word
    "security regime" is not defined, change "security regime" to "security
    scheme" to give:

    The "printer-uri" (uri) operation attribute which is the target for this
    operation as described in [RFC2911], section 3.1.5. The client MUST use the
    URI value as the target of this operation that the Printer returns in the
    "uri" field (see Table 1) in the Get-Printer-Attributes response.
    Furthermore, the client MUST use the appropriate authorization and security
    scheme for this URI as indicated by the Printer's "printer-uri-supported",
    "uri-authentication-supported" and "uri-security-supported" attributes (see
    [RFC2911] sections 4.4.1, 4.4.2, and 4.4.3). Only if the URI returned in
    the "uri" field matches the URI that the client used for the
    Get-Printer-Attributes request MAY the client use the same HTTP connection.
    The 'ipp' URL matching rules are defined in [ipp-url] and do not include the
    query part.

    3. In Table 1 - "client-print-support-files-supported" attribute fields, in
    the "cpu-type" entry, there are trademark, so add the following disclaimer
    at the end of the document:

    Trademarks
            Trademarks within this document are the property of their owners.

    Thanks,
    Tom

    Subject: IPP> ADM - IPP WG Last Call for "Internet Printing Protocol
    (IPP): Pri nter Installation Extension" closing on March 26, 2001

    All,

    This is a working group Last Call for the "Internet Printing Protocol (IPP):
    Printer Installation Extension". A version of this documents has been
    forwarded to the Internet Draft directory as <draft-ietf-ipp-install-02.txt>

    PDF and Word versions of the drafts are also posted at the ietf-ipp web
    site:

              ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/ipp/

    The Last Call notice follows:

    This is a formal request for final comments within the IETF IPP working
    group for one document. The document is "Internet Printing Protocol (IPP):
    Printer Installation Extension", which is being proposed for forwarding on
    to the IESG for consideration as Standards Track RFC.
      
    This is a working group product, which has been thoroughly discussed since
    mid 2000, and I believe that we now have working group consensus on its
    adequacy.

    The purpose of a working group Last Call is in the style of "speak now or
    forever hold your peace" in case there are fundamental objections which have
    not gotten previous or adequate discussion, or minor errors which need
    correction.

    Last Calls are for a minimum of 2 weeks. The period for working group
    comments will close on Monday, 26 March, 2001 (US Pacific time reference),
    to allow review during the upcoming IETF50 Meeting.

    The relevant document is:

            Title : Internet Printing Protocol (IPP): Printer
    Installation
                              Extension
            Author(s) : H. Parra, T. Tronson, T. Hastings
            Filename : draft-ietf-ipp-install-02.txt
            Pages : 25
            Date : 02-Mar-01
            
    Various client platforms require that some setting up take place at
    the workstation before the client can properly submit jobs to a
    specific printer. This setup process is sometimes referred to as
    printer installation.

    A URL for this Internet-Draft is:

    Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username
    "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in,
    type "cd internet-drafts" and then
            "get draft-ietf-ipp-install-02.txt".

    A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
    http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html
    or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt

    Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

    Send a message to:
            mailserv@ietf.org.
    In the body type:
            "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipp-install-02.txt".
            
    NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
            MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
            feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
            command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
            a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
            exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
            "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
            up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
            how to manipulate these messages.
