* W3C Publishing Workshop - report from Bill Wagner
- PWG Print Job Ticket
-- limited response from publishing people
-- relatively few participants spoke up during the open session
-- limited support for print job ticket elements in CSS3
- CSS WG members didn't appear to have consensus on how to proceed
-- idea seemed to be that the PDF render is in the browser
- How should PWG participate in CSS WG activity?
-- an open question
-- Paul will continue to monitor W3C in this area
- W3C Digital Publishing Interest Group
-- PWG member companies who are also W3C members can participate
* Broadband Forum 3rd Quarter - report from Ira McDonald
- CWMP Printer Data Model
-- strong positive response from BBF Service Providers Action Council
-- second informal discussion in Broadband Home WG
- Next steps?
-- Broadband Home WG co-chairs offered to schedule special telecons
-- Ira to prepare a BBF CWMP Printer slide for the October PWG plenary
(4) Question to the PWG SC: There currently is no representation from
the medical imaging community. Is there a desire to make overtures to
companies involved in medical imaging? Obtaining feedback by probing
them will give us some idea (just like the 3D printing case).
- topic deferred to next SC meeting
(5) Question to the PWG SC: Is there any liaisonship between PWG and
W3C. It seems that the W3C folks (CSS community) are more interested in
rendering on the browser as opposed to rendering on the Printer. It is
probably better to get involved at a higher level (that comprises CSS,
HTML and other W3C activities)
- see Bill's presentation to W3C above
(6) Mopria - informal discussion
