    All,

    Now is the time for anyone mildly interested in fleet management or the
    standardization of "click" counters on multifunction devices to take a look
    at this specification. We need to get comments from the PWG at large before
    a MIB and schema are created based on this specification. The
    specification is about 35 pages of which 8 are boiler plate. The
    specification consists mainly of tables, diagrams and lists and should not
    take too long to review. Please send any comments to the WIMS mailing list
    <mailto:wims@pwg.org <mailto:wims@pwg.org> > by close of business November
    12 so they may be addressed in the review of the specification.

    In preparation for the upcoming PWG meeting in San Antonio please review the
    PWG Standard for Multifunction Device Counters. The objective is to review
    this document section by section to prepare it for a Last Call. Particular
    attention should be paid to section 7 on conformance. We want to reduce the
    mandatory counters to a minimal but useful subset. I have taken an initial
    pass but I need other eyes to see if there can be further cuts or if I took
    out any critical counters.

    The specification to use for the review is available at
    <ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/wims/wd/wd-wimscount10-20041102.pdf
    <ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/wims/wd/wd-wimscount10-20041102.pdf> >
