    Right. Unfortunately, some of the technology I'll be using to build
    mine is proprietary and not likely to be open-sourced. I'll demo it
    someday, but I can't give away the code. However, by an odd twist, that
    could be an advantage in this case because the SBLM implementation will
    be independent.

    Hi,

    Whoops! Here's the URL for the SBLIM home page:

      http://sblim.sourceforge.net/

    Rick - a CIM Provider for the Print classes in SBLIM could be a second
    implementation (along with yours at Dell) to move our new CIM Print
    Device classes forward from Experimental to Final. Perhaps Rick and I
    could collaborate on doing this work in SBLIM?

    Cheers,
    - Ira

    Hi,

    Last week at the OSDL Desktop Architects conference I met Vivek Kashyap
    (IBM) who works on SBLIM (pronounced
    "sublime") (Standards-Based Linux Instrumentation for Manageability).

    They have a 'to-do' on their short list for a Print CIM Provider, but
    they already have CIMOMs running over DMTF's WBEM (different transport
    from WS-Mgmt or WSDM, but who cares?) and many CIM Providers.

    Rick and others - we should look into contributing to and collaborating
    with SBLIM, I think.

    Cheers,
    - Ira

    PS - More on OSDL DAM3 results shortly.
