Ira:

I used the word "roughly" with intent.

The PWG should decide whether PWG Standard is "roughly" equivalent to IETF
Draft Standard or to IETF Internet Standard.

Looking at the requirements, I believe IETF Draft Standard is the
equivalent of PWG Standard.

Hi Don,

All very good comments.  I agree with all of your proposed additions
and wording changes.

I'm curious about your comment (18) below.  It makes sense (on one
level), but would mean that until IETF IPP/1.1 (RFC 2910/2911) moves
to Internet Standard status (after going from current Proposed
Standard status to future Draft Standard status), no PWG IPP spec
could ever move higher than PWG Candidate Standard.  Right?

Is this desirable, given that the IETF IPP WG is moribund and will
presumably close permanently in the not too distant future?

Cheers,
- Ira McDonald

18) Clause 4.7, Page 10, line 355: add "PWG extensions to non-PWG standards
cannot attain PWG Standard status until the base standard has attained the
rough equivalent of PWG Standard status in the other organization."

There is really no last call process for the process document ;-). Please
review and prepare to try and close this formally at the Portland plenary.
If you can't make Portland please share you comments ahead of time so they
may be incorporated.
