    Hi,

    Thanks for your good comment.

    The references in MJT (soon to be republished under that
    better name) are all to the semantic source of elements,
    not to the syntax source. And because XML schema are
    _not_ in fact portable (nor normative), any reference to a
    PWG SM schema is inherently informative.

    We make that same distinction in our current WIMS work.

    Nonetheless, I think I should add Informative references
    to appropriate elements in PWG SM schema for all the
    MJT elements.

    Cheers,
    - Ira

    Ira,

    >7.1.1 JobMedia(String)
    .....
    >See: "Media Type Names" section 3 of [PWG5101.1]

    Is this reference section proper?
    Section 3 of [PWG5101.1] is describing the model of this semantics.
    A PWG Semantic Model Sub-Schemas "MediaWellKnownValues.xsd" lists "Media
    Type Names".

    Hi Paul and Harry,

    The document (never reviewed at May PWG, due to change
    of direction during CE Printing BOF) is at the link in
    the original release note below, which is:

        ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/BOFs/ce/tb-cesjt10-20040510.htm

    I still believe it applies well to the embedded/CE/mobile
    environment.

    It avoids at least 90% of the overhead of XML encodings
    (you could write a parser in 20 lines of C, using a small
    symbol table).

    [Harry has renamed it Micro Job Ticket, which is far more
    descriptive - after all, what is 'Simple'?]

    [This Micro Job Ticket could easily be extended for other
    imaging services, like copy, transform, etc.]

    Cheers,
    - Ira

    Hi folks, Monday (10 May 2004)

    [For review at the next PWG face-to-face meeting in Vancouver, BC,
    during the Consumer Electronice BOF on Thursday (27 May 2004)]

    Based on our discussions during the Consumer Electronics BOF at the PWG
    face-to-face meeting in April 2004 in Washington, DC, I have just posted
    an initial draft of a non-XML, string-encoded PWG Simple Job Ticket at:

        ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/BOFs/ce/tb-cesjt10-20040510.htm

    Please read the SJT/1.0 example in Appendix D (see below) and the brief
    ABNF in Appendix C before reading the body of this document.

    Please send comments to the 'pwg@pwg.org' mailing list.

    Cheers,
    - Ira

    [PS - Jerry - I cut and pasted the cover page style and boilerplate from
    Harry's most recent PWG Process 2.0 draft - please point out any errors
    - the boldface didn't cut and paste in titles such as 'About IEEE']

    Harry,

    In preparation for next week's meeting, can you please point me to the
    current micro-job ticket documentation? I browsed the PWG ftp site but
    I guess I missed it. Thanks in advance, and of course, looking forward
    to fully engaging with the PWG starting next week.

    Regards,

    -Paul
