Randy and Daniel,
I agree my wording for the client requirements still needs some polish - toss it up to writing it up late at night... How about:
Clients MUST support DNS-SD and/or WS-Discovery.
(the math geek in me likes the intersection version below... :)

Two of the comments concerned the client requirements to support DNS-SD for discovery and both PWG Raster and JPEG for document formats. After over an hour of spirited debate, the following "great compromise" was proposed to resolve the last call comments:
>>
>> 1. Discovery:
>>
>> a. Printers MUST support both DNS-SD and WS-Discovery (adds WS-Discovery)
>> b. Clients MUST support at least one of DNS-SD and WS-Discovery (Clients can choose amongst the two required protocols)
>>
>> 2. Document Formats:
>>
>> a. Printers MUST support both JPEG and PWG Raster (no change)
>> b. Clients MUST support at least one of JPEG and PWG Raster (relaxes conformance - previously a Client had to support both)
>>
>> Please comment on the proposed changes.
