I see I wasn't very clear about my proposal to follow the new PWG process.
My subject line was certainly mis-leading too. It should have been:
PMP> Printer MIB enum registration to follow new PWG process?
I was not suggesting that we vote on the Printer MIB draft and get
Formal Approval of that. I agree that would be out of order.
I was only suggesting that the enum registrations follow the new PWG process
for enum registration and have a Formal Approvement, not the Printer MIB
document itself.
So I was suggesting that at the PWG meeting next week during the PMP
status, we could just take a Formal Approval vote on the registration
of the new enums that the Finisher MIB needs. It should take about a
minute. We've done the Last Call according to the new PWG process.
