| characters (STR #1263) |
| - The cupstestppd program would segfault when testing |
| certain broken PPD files (STR #1268) |
| - Dramatically reduced the overhead of implicit classes. |
| - Added new cupsDir*() functions to CUPS API. |
| - Printers can now be published individually for sharing. |

| (STR #1258) |
| - Added new on-line help CGI to web interface to provide |
| searchable help. |
| - Devices are now tracked dynamically, with each query |
| doing a new device scan. This eliminates a previous |
| startup delay caused by slow backends and allows new |
| printers to be seen without restarting the server, |
| however it limits the amount of device URI checking |
| that can be done (basically now the scheduler only |
| requires a URI with a method that is a listed backend) |

| and log file viewing to the administration web page. |
| - Added new "set allowed users" web interface to set the |
| list of allowed users for a printer or class. |
| - The scheduler, command-line, and web interfaces now |
| limit the list of printers and classes to those |
| accessible by a user. |

| properly with IPv6 addresses (STR #1134) |

| they were unable to write to a temporary file (STR |
| #1129) |

| comments in Windows NT driver output (STR #1085) |
| - "lpstat -l -p" incorrectly reported the printer |
| interface (STR #936) |
| - The web interface now operates exclusively with the |
| UTF-8 encoding, and sends the appropriate character set |
| and header information to the web browser (STR #919, |
| STR #1007) |
| - Added a "set allowed users" interface to the web |
| interface so that you can set the list of allowed or |
| denied users/groups for a printer or class. |
| - Disallow the "#" character in printer names, since it |
| has special meaning in the shell, config files, and in |
| URIs (STR #917, STR #1202) |
| - Added a new application/x-csource MIME type, and |
| support for it to the texttops filter so that you can |
| pretty print plain text files without the C/C++ |
| keywords being highlighted. |
| - The pdftops filter did not compile with GCC 4.0 (STR |
| #1226) |
| - The texttops filter did not highlight preprocessor |
| directives followed by a tab properly. |
| - HP PJL output now uses both JOB DISPLAY and RDYMSG |
| commands to show the current job on the printer's |
| display (STR #1218) |
| - Local authentication certificates are now stored in |
| /var/run/cups/certs by default instead of |
| /etc/cups/certs (STR #1211) |
| - Backends now use "&" to separate options in device |
| URIs; "+" is still recognized but is deprecated (STR |
| #842) |
| - The USB backend no longer supports the usb:/dev/foo |
| format on systems that support device ID queries. |
| - Forced classification markings did not work when the |
| job-sheets parameters were "none,none". |
| - "lpstat -l -p" incorrectly showed all users as allowed, |
| even if the queue was restricted to certain users (STR |
| #801) |
| - The scheduler now automatically detects SSL/TLS clients |
| without using the SSLPort/SSLListen directives. |
| - The CUPS API and scheduler no longer support SSLv2- |
| encrypted connections. |
| - Updated the cupsaddsmb utility to correctly export the |
| CUPS driver for Windows. |
| - Fixed a signal-handling bug in httpRead() which |
| ultimately caused the server to print multiple copies |
| when it was busy (STR #1184) |
| - The cupsFile API now uses the O_APPEND option when |
| opening files in append mode (STR #990) |
| - The md5.h header and md5_* functions are now officially |
| private and have been renamed to avoid conflicts with |
| other implementations with the same name. |
| - The pdftops filter incorrectly embedded some Type1 |
| fonts (STR #1093) |
| - The scheduler didn't detect a closed connection in the |
| middle of an IPP request (STR #1153) |
| - The scheduler could block trying to read the job status |
| if there was input pending and the job was cancelled in |
| the same input cycle (STR #1157) |
| - The scheduler could crash when deleting a class due to |
| infinite recursion. |
| - Updated the Zebra ZPL label printer driver to use the |
| run-length encoding and support more options. |
| - Updated serial backend to scan for /dev/ttyC* as well |
| as /dev/ttyc* for Cyclades serial ports (STR #1049) |
| - The scheduler could hang reading the job status under |
| certain circumstances (STR #1068) |
| - The USB backend termination signal code was inverted |
| (STR #1046) |
| - Moved enable and disable commands to sbindir to be |
| consistent. |
| - Added new cupsRasterInterpretPPD() function for RIP |
| filters to setup the raster page header from |
| PostScript commands in a PPD file. |
| - The CUPS browsing protocol now offers a "delete" bit |
| to remove printers as soon as they are deleted on the |
| server or as soon as the server shuts down gracefully |
| (STR #793) |
| - The CUPS_SERVER and ServerName directives (client.conf |
| and ~/.cupsrc) may now contain names of the form |
| "server:port" and "/path/to/domain/socket". |
| - The "cancel -u user" command now works for ordinary |
| users (STR #751) |
| - Added test run support to "make test" target (STR #64) |
| - Added domain socket support (STR #656) |
| - Added BrowseLocalOptions directive to allow the |
| administrator to add printer URI options to the browse |
| URI, e.g. "encryption=required" (STR #732) |
| - Added BrowseRemoteOptions directive to allow the |
| administrator to add standard URI options to the |
| remote printer URI, e.g. "encryption=required" (STR |
| #732) |
| - Now put "-I.." compiler option in front of all others |
| to ensure that local CUPS headers are used before |
| installed headers (STR #437) |
| - New cupsLangPrintf() and cupsLangPuts() for localized |
| interfaces. |
| - Now support custom attributes and extended options in |
| PPD files. |

| - New policy mechanism allows per-operation and |
| per-printer control over what users and groups are |
| allowed to do various IPP operations. |

| backend errors are handled by the scheduler |
| (abort-job, retry-job, requeue-job, stop-printer) |
| - Updated the printer test page with a better color |
| wheel and a separate grayscale ramp. |
| - A single backend process is now run to send all print |
| data for a job. |
| - Backends and filters can now send and receive |
| backchannel data over file descriptor 3. |
| - Updated the raster stream format to support more |
| user-defined attributes and to do compression of the |
| page data. |
