In the telecon today, we discussed extending the Notification spec for
warnings and errors.
It looks like it will take some work to add those events and make the IPP
Notification spec a PWG document.
It is the consensus of many in the PWG that the IPP Notifications and
Subscriptions spec and the IPPGET Delivery Method for Event Notification
should be withdrawn as an IETF standards track document, because of the
difficulty of meeting the IESG security requirements for working on the
Internet. Therefore, they should be made into PWG IEEE-ISTO standard track
documents. At present we don't have an editor for such an effort.
However, for IPPFAX 1.0, would it suffice to just avoid using notification
and IPPGET altogether. If the Sender gets back a successful status code
from the Print-Job response, the Receiver successfully received all of the
document content. If the Sender wants to know whether the Job was
successfully completed, the Sender can poll using IPP Get-Job-Attributes.
ISSUE: OK for IPPFAX 1.0 to go forward without any reference to IPP Event
Notifications?
Thanks,
Tom
