Special Interest Groups may produce informational documents. These are
documents that the Working Groups or Special Interest Groups feel are relevant
to the members of the IDPF and that it wants to recommend to the members for
review. These may include white papers, commentaries, or other relevant
documents. The documents are informational only and do not have any official
status within the IDPF.

membership vote for approval. Working Groups, however, often release draft
specifications as informational documents both to get public feedback on
upcoming proposals as well as to alert IDPF members that proposed specifications
are forthcoming for their review.

IDPF. They will be forwarded to the
