    Don,

    This looks like an interesting area for the Printer Working Group (PWG) to
    participate, since HAVi is starting up a group to do printing. How can the
    PWG work with the HAVi group?

    Thanks,
    Tom

    Group

    The HAVi (Home Audio/Video Interoperability) organization is pleased to
    announce the formation of a HAVi Printer Working Group (PWG). We invite the
    participation of all HAVi member companies. If your company is not
    currently a HAVi member, you may join the working group after becoming a
    HAVi member. For more information about HAVi, visit our website at
    http://www.havi.org/

    The first two important dates in forming the PWG are

       Introductory conference call:
            Mon-23-Oct 10:00 pm Pacific Daylight Time
            Tue-24-Oct 7:00 am European Daylight Time
            Tue-24-Oct 2:00 pm Japan Standard Time

       First face-to-face meeting:
            8,9-Nov Rome (Italy) Airport Hilton

    The purpose of the introductory teleconference is to help set the
    expectations and agenda for the Rome face-to-face meeting. The phone number
    for the conference call will be sent to interested participants by
    Mon-23-Oct.

    At the Rome meeting we will elect a permanent chair, a secretary and a
    document editor; then we will begin the business of the PWG in earnest.
    (Refer to the HAVi website at http://www.havi.org/news/events/meet1100.html
    for location and registration details.)

    The major responsibilities of this working group will be to:
        1. Define the end-user requirements for output from
           a HAVi printer.
        2. Define the services and technical requirements for
           a HAVi Printer FCM.
        3. Create the technical specification for a printer FCM.
        4. Evaluate usability with a demonstration implementation.
        5. Either create a technical specification for a reliable
           asynchronous transport for streaming printer data, or
           specify the printer requirements for such a transport.
           The extent of this item will be finalized by the HAVi
           Technical Steering Committee in Rome on Fri-10-Nov based
           on recommendations from the PWG meetings on 8,9-Nov.

    If you would like to participate please send the name and email address of
    any interested participants from your company to me, Gerrie Shults,
    Temporary PWG Chair, at the email address below. Before or at the Rome
    meeting, any company wishing to vote on PWG issues must designate a voting
    representative to the PWG Chair. It is also desirable to designate an
    alternate, for those occasions when the voting representative is unable to
    attend a meeting. Meeting attendance is open to any employee of any HAVi
    member company, but only the designated representative or alternate is
    allowed to vote. We will also establish a HAVi PWG email reflector in the
    near future.

    We are looking forward to your contributions.

    Thank you and best regards,
    Gerrie Shults
