To the Members of the Service Location Protocol and the LDAP Extension
Working Groups.

Please note that I have just circulated the following IPP WG Last Call for
our document on LDAP Schema for Printer Services.

As this is a transplant from the SLP version, I am informing both groups. If
you have comments on this document,
please address them to the IPP WG at [email-masked] before the IPP WG Last Call
deadline on July 21, 2000.

Let me also take the opportunity to thank the members of your groups who
have contributed to this document.

Regards,

Carl-Uno Manros
