DPA (ISO/IEC 10175) To be published; updated version available

The ISO Central Secretariat requested additional editorial revisions to 
the Final Text of ISO/IEC 10175, Document Printing Application (DPA), 
parts 1 and 2.  These revisions were incorporated last month, along with 
several fixes to glitches that surfaced after the March '96 version was 
completed.


As indicated below, this is primarily an editorial upgrade to the version 
of March '96, and is reportedly now on its way to publication as an 
International Standard.


This new version is may be obtained by anonymous ftp from the server used 
by the IETF/DMTF Printer Working Group:


    ftp.pwg.com


in sub-directory:


    /pub/pwg/snmpmib/dpa/dpa-final/




I am now actively working on proposed addenda and corrigenda to contribute 
to the ISO working group (SC18/WG4); Annex H indicates some of the things 
under consideration. Suggested additions/corrections to DPA-1/2 will be 
gratefully accepted.  In addition, ballot comments on the DPA part 3 
Committee Draft (CD) will be considered at the next SC18/WG4 meeting, and 
revision to DPA-3 will begin at that time.  The DPA-3 CD can be found in 
subdirectory:


    /pub/mib/dpa/dpa-prt3.cd






The readme for the new DPA version is included below.  Additional readme 
files are included in the subdirectories /dpa1-2.ps, /dpa1-asn, dpa-zip, 
and non-rev.  These contain more detailed information about the contents 
of the subdirectories.


Any questions or comments should be forwarded to me or to the mail 
distribution list:


   dpa at woden.eng.sun.com


and members of the committee will respond.

READ ME.TXT -- ISO/IEC 10175 (DPA)
11 July 1996


The files in this directory represent the final state of
ISO/IEC 10175 (DPA) parts 1 and 2, as delivered to the
ISO Central Secretariat for publication as an International
Standard. This version incorporates editorial revisions
requested by the Central Secretariat, but also includes
line numbers which will not appear in the published ISO version.


This version of the Standard differs from the May 1995 and
March 1996 versions primarily in editorial details.  A few substantive
changes are noted in the change histories at the beginning of Annexes A 
and C; also, Figure 9-1 has been revised slightly. If anyone needs to see 
the actual changes, please refer to the revision-marked version stored in 
the Subdirectory REV-MARK.


The documents are available in four zip files that contain various
representations of the Final Text.  The zip files are:


   dpa-doc.zip  - the MS-WORD sources for this version of the Final Text


   dpa-docr.zip  - the MS-WORD sources with revision marks showing the
                 changes made to the Final Text version of March 1996


   dpa-ps.zip   - the PostScript(tm) (with revision marks removed) in four
                  files for Part 1 and a second file for Part 2


   dpa-asn.zip  - the ASN.1 sources for the DPA protocol


Each zip file contains a more detailed readme file : read-doc.txt, 
read-docr.txt, read-ps.txt, and read-asn.txt, respectively; these explain 
the contents of the zip files in more detail.


Any questions or comments should be forwarded to the mail distribution list:


   dpa at woden.eng.sun.com


and members of the committee will respond.
