I would have thought you were the first that would applaud efforts to make
cups more mainstream by making it a more core component that more parts
depends on :)
Anyway, you are writing emails too fast. I want to do some hacking and
enjoy my evening as well :) Your mails all have the same tone of doom
and helplessness. (which I entirely understand, btw)
I've said it before, and I'll say it again, this stuff has my and TTs
attention. Consider that I'm one of the largest backers of a printing
system that will "just work". I mean, I have just spent 2 years off on my
own time writing a word processor. Which is useless without proper
printing. :-) Consider my motivation here.
We have a roadmap, and the manpower to keep to it, which is better then
you will have seen in years in kdeprint.
