\maketitle
The \TUG\ {\tt DVI} driver standards committee has been working on the
development of standards for device drivers since the fall of~1988. This
article is a first report on our status to the membership of \TUG.

\verb+\special+ standards for device drivers. By the \TUG\ meeting this August,
we should have a preliminary report on this topic available for distribution to
all interested parties. We welcome all input from members of the \TeX\
community; if you have any suggestions, comments, etc. regarding the issue of
\verb+\special+ handling, we would appreciate it if you could send these to
\contactperson\ for distribution to the members of the committee.
