I think the main odd thing is that they are formatted in landscape, so they
are on the wide side for viewing on the screen.   They're probably easier to
read printed - my guess is that these were originally formatted as html, and
whoever created them had their distiller set to landscape.

Bob, regarding HP's recent submission to Oasis - Web Services Management
Framework - do you see this as a preferred path to web services based
printer, mfp and print services management than PWG WBMM? If so, do you have
any recommendations as to how we can prevent several organizations
reinventing similar solutions and semantics and what the optimal PWG
contribution might be?
