PWG> ADM - Regarding voting on documents for PWG standards track

Hi,

I just got the voting results back from IEEE-ISTO on the three documents
that we have had out for voting.

Only 7 PWG member companies voted.

Out of the votes there was only one negative vote from Michael Sweet at Easy
Software, who had some objections to the 

	Internet Printing Protocol (IPP): Override Attributes for Documents
and Pages

document. After some discussions with Michael, he has suggested to label
that document
as EXPERIMENTAL, similarly to how IPP/1.0 RFCs were labeled in the IETF.

According to the PWG rules, we don't seem to have such a category, but I
herewith suggest
that we introduce such a category. I hope that Don Wright can take you
through the steps
to make such a change.

It seems that the remaining two documents should be published as PWG Draft
Standards,
which seems to best match their current document status, and would put them
on the same 
level as the IPP/1.1 RFCs.

	Internet Printing Protocol (IPP): "output-bin" attribute extension
	Internet Printing Protocol (IPP): "finishings" attribute values
extension	

I hope that you can reach agreements on this in the upcoming PWG meeting
this week.
