IPP> Document Object Spec Comments... [Validate-Job for each document vs. Create-Document/Send-Data]

Hi Michael,

We also agreed at today's SM telecon to remove the Create-Document 
and Send-Data operations entirely from the JobX spec.  They can
be added in some future IPP/1.2, if someone wants them.  Also we
agreed to remove entirely the new Close-Job operation.

Although Close-Job is a good idea (a PSI idea), it's not useful
if it's not REQUIRED and if the previous RFC 2911 last-document
or empty document with Send-Document are not deprecated.  We're
not ready to rock the boat and change RFC 2911 behavior.

Thanks for all your good feedback.

Pete Zehler will be posting _one_ more revised IPP Document object
shortly.  After that, all review will be by email through and including
the Portland face-to-face coming up in mid-June.

Next week at the SM telecon, we'll review the new Overrides spec
(replaces the Experimental PWG 5100.4 when adopted).

Next week at the IPPFAX telecon, we'll review the new JobX spec
(the useful operations, without the Document object itself).

Cheers,

I haven't had a chance to read the latest version (did manage to
print it out, but been too busy to sit and read it yet), but this
is definitely good news!
