Of the list of enumeration changes that have been debated going from v1 to
v2... here are the ones I agree make sense to "change back" (stated in
their v1 format).
The following are alert coded
coverOpen
interlockOpen
configuratoinChange
jam
powerUp
powerDown
inputMediaSizeChange
inputMediaTypeChange
inputMediaColorChange
interpreterMemoryIncrease
interpreterMemoryDecrease
The following are alert severities
critical
warning
The following is subUnitStatus
atIntendedState
All the other changes appeared to me to have a good purpose. Either they
corrected a misspelled word or resolved some conflict that had been
debated. A good example of this is the change in prtConsoleDisabled enums
from enabled/disabled to operatorConsoleEnabled/operatorConsoleDisabled.
Remember the debate about "enabling the disable"? I do ;-(.
I have already changed the above and am preparing to issue a new draft of
the Printer MIB. Now is the time to comment if you object or have further
observations. I think Mike was first to point out the folly of some of
these changes and my interpretation was that Mike was just asking for some
prudent reservation... I believe the collection, above, represents that.
I need some help on the change of things like prtChannelType to
PrtChannelTypeTC. This type of change occurs a lot and Mike seems to be
suggesting it was unnecessary but it would appear to me to be correcting
an original syntactical oversight.
