    Can't it be simple?

    If the topic pertains to one DL... copy only that DL.

    If the topic pertains primarily to one DL but may also pertain to multiple
    DLs... send to the primary DL and, in addition, to PWG.org

    If the topic pertains to multiple DLs with no particular primary... just
    send to PWG.org

    Don,

    Maybe we can discuss sending mail to multiple DLs at the PWG meeting of
    what
    to do when a message affect multiple PWG standards activities. Is the PWG
    DL sufficiently broad to cover a number of DLs? For example, how many of
    the IPP members are also PWG members? How many PMP members are also PWG
    members? How many UPD members are also PWG members?

    Or we could send one message to PWG Announce, with an indication of which
    DL
    to carry on replies. But this would be too broad, since PWG Announce gets
    to all PWG DLs.

    BTW,

    I used to get a separate copy of each message for each DL with the
    appropriate XXX> prefix on the subject line. Recently, I'm only getting
    one
    XXX> prefix but still a copy to each DL. Did you change something on the
    PWG server?

    I use Outlook, so I set up filters to filter into separate folders for
    each
    DL, so I don't mind getting duplicates. However, for those who read all
    their incoming mail as a single thread, it would be a pain to get
    duplicates, especially now that the XXX> prefix on the subject line is
    fixed
    at only of the DLs for all copies.

    Thanks,
    Tom

    Please resist the urge to copy multiple mailing lists. Pick the most
    appropriate one and be done with it.

    Ray,

    You should look at RFC 2569, entitled: "Mapping between LPD and IPP
    Protocols". IPP (RFC 2911) has a lot of character set and localization
    semantics in it, so those semantics may help in understanding how they
    might
    apply to LPD using the mapping semantics. (I have not studied RFC 259
    from
    this perspective). I suspect that RFC 1179 which attempted to document
    LPD
    practice didn't go into such areas.

    There is also RFC 2708 "Job Submission Protocol Mapping Recommendations
    for
    the Job Monitoring MIB" that deals with mapping job attributes of PServer
    and RPrinter to the PWG Job Monitoring MIB (RFC 2707), that might also
    help.
    The PWG Job Monitoring MIB had localization and character set support in
    it.

    If you find that these documents are insufficient to answer your
    questions,
    please post the questions again to these lists, since such documents
    should
    include character and localization considerations.

    Thanks,
    Tom

    Subject: PWG> Question about Localization

    Hello,

         I had some questions with regards to localization
         specifically for PServer, RPrinter and LPD.

         The questions are as follows:
              Character set/encoding supported?
              Character set identification?
              Character set negotiation?
              Character Transformation encoding?

         Specifically in regards to:
              Path name,
              User name,
              Domain name,
              Host name,
              Queue name,
              Printer name,
              Print server name,
              Repository name

         Does anyone know of any RFC's or other documents that
         I can get access to that would help me resolve these
         questions?

         Thanks in advance for any and all help.

    Best Regards,
