Carl-Uno,
I don't deny that it's our own fault that these specifications have not
been completed. (Well, the length of time it takes to get stuff through
IETF doesn't help any!)
However, I don't believe that it's accurate to say that there is no
interest in ever finishing them. Micheal has expressed that CUPS will
have some support for notifications, and IPPFax was interested in
requiring it.
At this point in time, I don't have the bandwidth to take on anymore
work and I really don't know anyone who does. Which is why I was
curious about reclaiming rights. Someone was mentioning that it may be
possible for the authors to reclaim the rights and then submit the specs
to the PWG, at which point we may be able to modify them at some later
date.

Gail,
We only have ourselves to blame for the non-progression of these drafts
in
the IETF. Nobody in the IPP WG stepped up to the task of responding to
the
comments that we go back from our Area Director. If you or somebody else
in
the WG is prepared to pick up the job where we left it off these drafts
can
still be progressed. It seems that Tom Hastings is not prepared to spend
more editor's time on this as he is already overextended. Also, this is
not
only an editing job, it is also a matter of reaching IPP WG agreements
on
the changes requested by the Area Director.
These drafts are IETF drafts and although people who are also PWG
members
have made most of the contributions in them they have not been "given by
the
PWG to the IETF", so there cannot be any question about "giving them
back".
As for the PWG getting the rigth to take over some of the drafts as
basis
for possible future PWG standards, I think that would be a question for
the
PWG chair to take up directly with the IESG, via our new Area Director.
I
don't think this can be handled on the IETF WG level, although I can
certainly contribute in the discussions.
