WBMM is growing in scope, and I'm ok with that... (I think Bill might remind me that I contributed to this by insisting that WBMM scope include the intranet and devices, themselves). I think we're going to need to subset, however, to make any reasonable schedule. I suggest priorities are 1. Extranet device management, monitoring and administration 2. Intranet and extranet device and services management, monitoring and administration 3. Intranet and extranet device, services and spool or queue management, monitoring and administration ---------------------------------------------- Harry Lewis Chairman - IEEE-ISTO Printer Working Group http://www.pwg.org IBM Printing Systems http://www.ibm.com/printers 303-924-5337 ---------------------------------------------- <table width=100%> <tr valign=top> <td width=40%>"TAYLOR,BOB (HP-Vancouver,ex1)" <bobt@hp.com> Sent by: owner-wbmm@pwg.org 07/24/2003 10:54 AM <td width=59%> <table width=100%> <tr> <td> <div align=right>To</div> <td valign=top>"'McDonald, Ira'" <imcdonald@sharplabs.com>, Harry Lewis/Boulder/IBM@IBMUS, wbmm@pwg.org <tr> <td> <div align=right>cc</div> <td valign=top> <tr> <td> <div align=right>Subject</div> <td valign=top>RE: WBMM> Queues</table> <table> <tr valign=top> <td> <td></table> </table> <tt>I do think doing some sub-setting makes sense - in the case of queues, not all devices/services managed by WBMM will have queues to manage.   Once we understand the potential subsets, we can talk about which ones need to be in WBMM 1.0, and which can follow (or potentially be done in parallel. bt > -----Original Message----- > From: McDonald, Ira [mailto:imcdonald@sharplabs.com] > Sent: Thursday, July 24, 2003 9:44 AM > To: 'Harry Lewis'; wbmm@pwg.org > Subject: RE: WBMM> Queues > > > Hi Harry, > > Apparently we want to focus on WBMM device management first > (per most of our WBMM discussions). > > However, that doesn't do PSI any particular good, which still > would require the box labelled "and then a miracle happens" > to get a PSI Print Service (or Target Device) installed or > reconfigured after installation. > > Do we care that all PSI implementations will ship without > standards-based management for several more years? > > Cheers, > - Ira McDonald >   High North Inc > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Harry Lewis [mailto:harryl@us.ibm.com] > Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2003 11:38 PM > To: wbmm@pwg.org > Subject: WBMM> Queues > > > > Sorry I missed the call.
