Bill,
The overall game plan is still for the IETF to make a separate project for
QUALDOCS. However, as with IPP, the PWG can certainly work on input to that
project, and I suspect that QUALDOCS may not go anywhere if members from the
PWG do not contribute to it.

Subject: RE: ADM - IPP Priorities
Ron,
Just to avoid dilution of votes, can we determine whether Qualdocs is within
our scope? I thought that there was a different group trying to be chartered
to do Qualdocs. If this is so, it would not allow us to drive the activity
(although I suppose we may contribute individually and perhaps as a group).
I would very much prefer that the extension of IPP to MFD was done within an
extended form of our own group (i.e., with fax and scanner people) But
unless I missed something, that is not the case.

Subject: Re: ADM - IPP Priorities
Carl-Uno,
I agree that notifications needs to remain the highest priority!
I would also like to add Qualdocs to your list.
Here is my ranking per your points system:
5 - Set 2 Operations
4 - Set 3 Operations
3 - Qualdocs
3 - Print Driver Download
3 - Open Source IPP Client
1 - Production Printing Attributes
1 - Document & Page Exceptions
1 - Resource Object
The Set 2 and Set 3 operations have been in progress for too long. We
need to
make
a final agreement as to their content and complete this effort!
Qualdocs should not be a major effort. Seems that most of the work is
already
in
place. This could be our "killer application" and with notifications
almost
complete
this could be quickly formalized.
Print Driver Download and an Open Source IPP Client will also provide a
powerful
edge to IPP.
