Re: TIFF-FX: where are the implementor's statements of compliance?

You are right.

With regard to the above,
the **NEW** implementation tests are necessary for the process.
Because the current I-D defines new MIME content type
for Profile J, C, L and M.
I'm sure the editors understand it.

To editors of TIFF-FX:
Please provide your plans for the implementation test at the SLC meeting.
I'm sure I requested it in October or November.
