1394 PWGers,

I've recently become frustrated with my ability to describe the layer and command-set we are created for SBP-2. I'd like to see a name for it, rather than the "1394 PWG Protocol" or "PWG Transport". I don't have any ideas at the moment. We need our own "DPP". How about:

PPP: PWG Printing Profile
1PT: 1394 PWG Transport
PTP: PWG Transport Protocol
SPC: SBP-2 Printing Command set

Come on, Don, you are Mr. TLA. Got anything better?

Brian
