The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Internet Printing Protocol/1.1: Encoding and Transport' (draft-sweet-rfc2910bis-09.txt) as Proposed Standard This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Alexey Melnikov. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-sweet-rfc2910bis/ Technical Summary The 2910bis and 2911bis documents are making necessary updates to the Internet Printing Protocol that was produced by the IPP working group and published as RFCs 2910 and 2911 in 2000. The updates bring the protocol up to date with what is currently deployed. Working Group Summary This is not a product of any WG. Document Quality After the IPP working group was closed down in 2000, further work on Internet printing moved out of the IETF and into the IEEE-ISTO's Printer Working Group (IPP WG). These documents represent the work of that group, which is where all the operators/implementors of IPP do their work (they are, basically, the ones who worked in the IETF IPP working group when it was active). The documents have consensus of that group, and the consensus and implementation are solid and broad. The documents are being brought back into the IETF for last call and publication because they are updating (replacing) IETF Standards Track documents. There is no active work in the IETF on Internet printing now. Personnel Barry Leiba is the document shepherd. Alexey Melnikov is the responsible Area Director.
