[IPP] IPP Everywhere and "The Great Compromise"

 i think I understand the compromise, although I would have worded 1b and 2b a little different

Clients MUST support either DNS-SD or WS-Discovery….

It's just a different use of a contraction

"…one of DNS-SD AND WS-Discovery"  seemed to use an AND contraction which implied both - someone might inadvertently parse this in a way we didn't expect….although I got the gist of the compromise.

Two of the comments concerned the client requirements to support DNS-SD for discovery and both PWG Raster and JPEG for document formats.  After over an hour of spirited debate, the following "great compromise" was proposed to resolve the last call comments:
