I think that IDPrinting in JDF is a reasonable bridge, but I encourage
others to review it and see if I missed something.
I'm not sure what you mean by "adopt JDF". JDF is at least one order of
magnitude more complex than IPP and it tries to solve a much larger problem
than IPP solves.
The JDF work until this point has been done by a consortium of a few
companies. CIP4 is just now forming and JDF is being handed of to CIP4. It
isn't clear how things will work. I would certainly encourage PWG members to
participate in CIP4, but I'm not sure what it would mean for PWG to work
with CIP4.
