I have update the Job Mib Mapping document with the changes agreed in
the Boulder meeting. I have also included the changes recommended in
Tom Hastings memo of 24 Oct 1997, with the following exception:
Tom recommended a note for the mapping of *sides* in IPP to
indicate that 3 IPP enum values need to be mapped to 2 JMP integer
values. IPP sides definition allows 3 values:
1) one-sided
2) two-sided-long-edge
3) two-sided-short-edge
The JMP sides definition has two values: 1 (side) or 2 (sides).
I do not feel that the recommended note is necessary. If anyone
responds to this message that this mapping would be unclear without
this note, I will add.
The documents can be retrieved on the PWG FTP site as:
ftp::/ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/jmp/specs/JMPMAP01.DOC (no revision marks)
ftp::/ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/jmp/specs/JMPMAP01-REV.DOC (w/ revision marks)

Open issues:
1) Mapping information needs to be generated for IPDS. (There were
several IBM representatives at the meeting in Boulder, and the
consensus was IPDS should be included in the document.)
ACTION: Harry Lewis will provide this information.
2) Mapping information needs to be generated for DPA or Print Exchange.
ACTION: Tom Hastings will provide.
3) The NDPS mapping needs to be reviewed. Scott Isaacson provided a
list of the JMP objects and attributes supported, but no information
was provided as to the identification of the corresponding NDPS
parameters.
ACTION: Scott - Can this data be provided?
4) The PJL mapping needs to be reviewed.
ACTION: Bob Pentecost, can you do a quick review?
5) I have added a mapping for PostScript. This needs to be reviewed.
6) A new jmJobSubmissionId format is required for PostScript. This is
an agent generated format which uses the document name.
7) The mapping for PServer needs to be reviewed. There are three JMP
attributes that do not a corresponding PServer parameter identified.
ACTION: Scott - Can you review this section?
8) A new jmJobSubmissionId format is required for PServer. This is
an agent generated format which uses the directory path name.
9) SMB mapping is needed.
ACTION: Ron Bergman will provide.
10) TIP/SI mapping is needed. I will do a draft of the maaping and
send the result to the mailing list for review.
11) The issue was raised in Boulder as to how jmJobSubmissionId is to
be mapped if there are multiple *submission protocols* used in the
transmission of the job, all which can generate a valid
jmJobSubmissionId. I will send an email to get the discussion
started on this subject.
I would like to get as many of these issues resolved prior to the L.A.
meeting. Please try to get as many of these action items resolved by
November 21st.
