    Hi Rick,

    Well _our_ (unspecified) solution to mapping Printer MIB
    counter out-of-band values into CIM properties is a cogent
    topic - see the type 'ObjectCounterBasisWKV' defined in:

      ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/wims/schema/WimsType-20060612.xsd

    used, e.g., in element 'InputTrayMaxCapacityBasis' defined in:

      ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/wims/schema/Subunits-20060612.xsd

    Our modelling solution to the above is independent of what
    class hierarchy we adopt (and I need the answer for my
    MIB to MOF translator code work).

    Cheers,
    - Ira

    I agree that we should meet briefly this week *IF* I can get some
    pictures drawn of the class hierarchy, and maybe one example of
    instances. Likelihood, unless the boss unleashes something in the next
    day or so, 80%.

    If there is other business, too, then let's make it definite.

    Hi,

    Neither the minutes from the last week's face-to-face nor the previous
    week's teleconference indicate whether we are meeting this week. This
    is not a failure of the minutes (thanks Craig), but a failure to plan
    ahead.

    If possible, I suggest we _do_ meet this week, to work on class
    structure and planning -

    Also, follow-up discussion of the WIMS "Counter Issue"
    - which has wider implications, including Pete's plan to use XML
    _attribute_ rather than XML _element_ for the Printer MIB out-of-band
    values in counters, which were modelled as XML _element_ in my Subunits
    schema and would be CIM _property_ and not CIM _qualifier_ in any
    plausible CIM mapping of Printer MIB.

    Cheers,
    - Ira
