IPP FAX WG,

I've attached some IPP FAX Status slides (13K .zip file) that Lloyd McIntyre
will present to the Internet FAX WG meeting next Monday at the IETF in
London.  Please check them over and send any comments.  We have until this
Friday to fix the slides.  I call your attention to the IPP FAX Time Line
slide 2 which has some projected dates.  You may want to revise them.

The files are also down-loaded at:

ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/QUALDOCS/slides/IPPFAX-status-010729-at-ietf51.ppt

Thanks,
Tom
