As Ira indicated, there will be a CIM conference call this Thursday at 2 PM EDT.
Dial In: 1-866-365-4406
Toll #: 1-303-248-9655
Passcode: 2635888#
Items on the Agenda are:
a. Approval of Minutes of 8 March
ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/wims/minutes/cim_070308.pdf.
(thank you Craig)
b. Discussion of progress with CIM effort/ communications with CIM. Please see:
Rick Landau's emails of Friday, March 09, 2007 and Ira McDonald's message below.
c. Perhaps a few minutes on the Counter Spec again. I had sent out an email considering Glen Petrie's comments about a month ago (15 Feb), but there has been no response. I know we discussed these already, but some of his comments refer to simple changes that may inprove understanding and I wanted to doublecheck with the group on whether these should be addressed before I send out the call for objections.
1. "raw traffic" - change to "actiity" or "Workload", or include defintion
2. add defintion of "Single-sided" as a synonym of "Simplex"
Many thanks.
Bill Wagner

> Hi,
>> Reminder that we should have a WIMS-CIM telecon this week.
>> A suggested topic:
>> * Reappraisal of the DMTF/PWG CIM Refresh alliance
> - The modelling is getting progressively more convoluted
> and our original objective (essentially comprehensive
> CIM mapping of print device and print service standards)
> is not feasible.
> - Rick can give us more details from the CIM Core WG meeting
> last week, but the bottom line is that we must simplify
> (i.e., delete more properties) the print subunits or we'll
> certainly be forced to separate capabilities and possibly
> separate settings classes - defeating the CIM modelling
> usefulness entirely.
>> Cheers,
> - Ira
