Are people in this group aware of the ISO standard project to creat
SPDL - standard page description lnaguage ?  This is where these 
discussions are being done meaningfully.  If Imagen is not involved, they
should be.  If Ivan is not involved, maybe he should be.
 
P.S. Bell Northern Research is not part of AT&T - so I don't work at 
Bell Labs, ok?
