    Hi Bill,

    The normative source (with examples) is the PWG Naming Policy at:

      ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/general/process/pwg-namespace-policy-20060112.txt

    NOTE - Working drafts of charter updates are supposed to be published
    in the /pub/pwg/WG/wd directory, NOT in the .../charter directory. Only PWG
    SC or PWG Formal Vote approved charters are supposed to be in .../charter.

    An example that conforms to the PWG policy (and includes the correct set
    of section headers) is the IPP WG charter at:

      ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/ipp/charter/ch-ipp-charter-20050317.htm

    For the next WIMS Charter working draft (goes to PWG SC for approval),
    the correct Status is 'Stable'. Only after PWG SC approval, should a NEW
    copy be renamed and labeled 'Approved' and placed in .../charter.

    We didn't think of VERSION in the PWG Naming Policy. I like your suffix of '30'
    in the filenames as helpful and meaningful.

    Cheers,
    - Ira
