  • Next message: Manros, Carl-Uno B: "RE: IPP> ADM - Latest Set of IPP drafts will come out for IPP WG Last Call"

    All,

    This is a working group Last Call for the "Internet Printing Protocol (IPP):
    IPP URL Scheme". A version of this documents has been forwarded to the
    Internet
    Draft directory as <draft-ietf-ipp-url-scheme-02.txt>

    PDF and Word versions of the drafts are also posted at the ietf-ipp web
    site:

              ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/ipp/

    The Last Call notice follows:

    This is a formal request for final comments within the IETF IPP
    working group for one document. The document is "Internet Printing Protocol
    (IPP): IPP URL Scheme", which is being proposed for forwarding on to the
    IESG for consideration as Standards Track RFC.
      
    This is a working group product, which has been thoroughly discussed since
    late 2000.

    The document has undergone review and revisions during the past few months
    and I believe that we now have working group consensus on its adequacy.

    The document is an extension to RFC 2911.

    The purpose of a working group Last Call is in the style of "speak now or
    forever hold your peace" in case there are fundamental objections which have
    not gotten previous or adequate discussion, or minor errors which need
    correction.

    Last Calls are for a minimum of 2 weeks. The period for working group
    comments will close on Monday, 26 March, 2001 (US Pacific time reference),
    to allow review during the upcoming IETF50 Meeting.

    The relevant document is:

            Title : Internet Printing Protocol (IPP): IPP URL Scheme
            Author(s) : R. Herriot, I. McDonald
            Filename : draft-ietf-ipp-url-scheme-02.txt
            Pages : 16
            Date : 14-Feb-01
            
            
       This document is a product of the Internet Printing Protocol Working
       Group of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). Comments should
       be submitted to the ipp@pwg.org mailing list.
       
       This document is intended for use in registering the "ipp" URL scheme
       with IANA and fully conforms to the requirements in [RFC-2717]. This
       document defines the "ipp" URL (Uniform Resource Locator) scheme for
       specifying the location of an IPP Printer, IPP Job, or other IPP
       object (defined in some future version of IPP) which implements the
       IPP/1.1 Model [RFC-2911] and the IPP/1.1 Protocol encoding over HTTP
       [RFC-2910] or any later version of IPP. The intended usage of the
       "ipp" URL scheme is COMMON.
       
       The IPP URL scheme defined in this document is based on the ABNF for
       the HTTP URL scheme defined in HTTP/1.1 [RFC-2616], which is derived
       from the URI Generic Syntax [RFC-2396] and further updated by
       [RFC-2732] and [RFC-2373] (for IPv6 addresses in URLs). An IPP URL
       is transformed into an HTTP URL according to the rules specified in
       section 5 of the IPP/1.1 Protocol [RFC-2910].

    This document is a product of the Internet Printing Protocol Working
    Group of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). Comments should
    be submitted to the ipp@pwg.org mailing list.

    Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

    Send a message to:
            mailserv@ietf.org.
    In the body type:
            "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipp-url-scheme-02.txt".
            
    NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
            MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
            feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
            command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
            a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
            exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
            "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
            up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
            how to manipulate these messages.
