[IPP] RFC: Proposed errata for PWG 5100.3 (Production Printing)

Hi Paul,

I understand the more limited scope of your proposal to look at
PODI and friends.

But I simply don't want to expand any IPP existing attributes and
finishing types unless they're needed and important for higher
fidelity PJT mappings from JDF or MSPS.  Even looking ahead
to MODCA should be deferred.  Standard numbers and revision
year numbers are cheap.

I prefer not to open that can of worms (endless world of finishing
type-specific option details) in the near term.

The objective is just to define the one finishing-template attribute
(keyword type names) and the enclosed finishing type-specific
members in an IPP 'collection' work, particular for IPP Implementors
Guide v2 to recommend best practice for finishings-col.

Narrower scope is better, I suggest.

Cheers,
- Ira
