IPP> Teleconference call minutes [mailto: notification methods]

Hi Tom,

That document (IPP Email Notifications) was formally abandoned after
Ricoh stated that they held relevant patents and would NOT license
those patents.  The PWG will never take up IPP Email Notifications
again.  That's the way the cookie crumbles.

Cheers,
- Ira
