If this is a vote for making things mandatory :-
0 a) over email
0 b) over IPP (a.k.a. intelligent polling)
0 c) over INDP (new IPP-like protocol, but works in the opposite direction)
0 d) over SNMP
I dont think mandating is useful
If this is a vote for 'what specs do we need to agree and bakeoff ASAP'
2 a) over email
0 b) over IPP (a.k.a. intelligent polling)
2 c) over INDP (new IPP-like protocol, but works in the opposite direction)
0 d) over SNMP

Subject: IPP> ADM - Pick your favorite notification delivery method by July 7
All,
The IETF does not do voting, but we can ask people to allocate weights to
their favorite method. From the result I hope to get a picture of whether we
have a clear "rough consensus" favorite, or if we should just avoid trying
to make any particular notification delivery method the "required" or
"mandated" one.
So let the weightings begin!
Here are the rules:
1) We have 4 candidate notification delivery methods, briefly described as:
a) over email
b) over IPP (a.k.a. intelligent polling)
c) over INDP (new IPP-like protocol, but works in the opposite direction)
d) over SNMP
2) You have a total of maximum 4 weight points to allocate between the 4
methods above.
a) You can put all your 4 points on one favorite and leave the other three
with 0 each. (the 'all eggs in one basket' option)
b) If you don't really mind which method, you can give 1 point to each of
the methods. (the 'chicken' option)
c) You can allocate your 4 points somewhere between the two extreme cases
above. (the 'diplomatic' options)
d) If you don't want to make ANY of the methods "required" or "mandated",
put a 0 for ALL four methods! (the 'don't even try it' option)
If you still haven't understood the rules, please read the above text 3 more
times, before you make a fool of yourself....., or of me for not being clear
enough ;-{
So please collect your wits and send your weights to the IPP DL no later
than next Friday July 7!
Have fun.... and remember that if you do not participate you cannot win!
