    Hi Pete,

    Comments:

    (1) RFC 2396 (in syntaxes) is obsoleted by RFC 3986.
    <PZ>OK</PZ>

    (2) I suggest that instead of 'Address' (somewhat inaccurate), the
        keyword for WS-Print Service URL be 'ServiceURI' - consistent with
        other existing channels and with the PWG Port Monitor MIB.
    <PZ>I choose Adress based on the WS-Transfer/WS-MetadataExchange
    elemenat name in Relationships. I can live with ServiceURI. It should
    be noted that the multiplicity is probably wrong since the Service can
    be available at multiple URLs (e.g. IPv4 and IPv6 IP addresses in a
    URL). And yes I know that is not a good idea but it happens in
    unmanaged networks.</PZ>

    (3) Syntax for DeviceUUID should be changed to
        'URI (Unicode UTF-8 per RFC 3986)'
        - consistent with other channels and RFC 4122 (your reference)
        - note that OCTET STRING is BINARY and illegal in human-readable
        prtChannelInfo object (which must be string parseable).
    <PZ>That is what I originally had. As long as a value such as
    'uuid:172582cc-4dc4-4786-abc2-d1c307123ac6' is valid it works for
    me.</PZ>

    Cheers,
    - Ira
