  • Next message: Hastings, Tom N: "IFX> Comments on the IPP FAX transport requirements"

    The agenda asks whether there are any alternatives to the CONNEG for Data
    format capability discovery -- RFC2531 / 2533. There are two alternatives:

    1. W3C is continuing the constraints work in a group called: Composite
    Capabilities-Preferences Profile Working Group. See the bound handout from
    the Chicago meeting which is also a single zip file:

    ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/QUALDOCS/meeting-docs/meeting-000915.zip

    2. Norbert Schade has forwarded an alternative constraints approach as well
    from the UPDF work.

    The second IPP Fax full day meeting is coming up in Boston on 10/26.

    If you didnt attend the first one - dont be shy, attend this one. IOC/ MFPA
    attendees from the MFP, Fax, copy, etc world are particulary welcome.
    Regular attendees - ping all your friends. If you are not sure what IPP Fax
    is
    then check out our web site at http://pwg.org/qualdocs/index.html.

    For non PWG regulars the rules for attending are simple. Turn up and pay a
    minimal fee (covers room and food costs - typically about $50).
    Ideally you should register in advance at
    https://www.ieee-isto.org/pwg/registration.html.

    For details on the location visit http://pwg.org/chair/boston00.html For
    more
    details on the pwg visit www.pwg.org.

    Proposed agenda

    This is a full day so hours are 8.30am to 5pm (approx)

    Ratification of split into two parts - data format / discovery and
    transport.
     -- See my previous email on this subject. I have had no negative comments
    on
    this topic.

    Document format requirements.
    -- I have posted a requirements document to the ftp site
    ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/QUALDOCS/uif-requirements-01.pdf.
    -- Also we need to identify what we dont like about the current TIFF-FX spec

    Transport requirments
    -- I have posted a requirements document to the ftp site
    ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/QUALDOCS/ifx-transport-requirements-01.pdf

    User identity discussion
    -- should we use vcard, XML vcard, etc. Please come prepared to propose
    alternatives

    Data format capability discovery
    -- RFC2531 / 2533 - are they OK? Does anybody have any alternatives

    Lunch somewhere in the middle!

    See you there.
