+CHANGES.txt - 03/13/2000
+------------------------
+
+CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b2
+
+	- Documentation updates.
+	- The lp command didn't always load the user-defined
+	  destinations, preventing it from seeing the default
+	  printer.
+	- Many configure script and makefile fixes.
+	- The Microsoft code page files were missing from the
+	  distribution.
+	- Added a workaround for the HP IPP client (which is sending
+	  an invalid printer-uri in requests)
+	- Fixed the encoding of text-with-language and name-with-language
+	  to match the IPP spec.
+	- Added support for unknown value tags in the IPP routines
+	  (previously they would be ignored)
+	- Integrated GNU GhostScript 5.50 into the pstoraster filter.
+	- Client hostname resolution was broken on little-endian
+	  machines.
+	- Now look at client.conf file for client's default server
+	  and printer.
+	- The cupsServer() function did not close the client.conf file
+	  if it contained a ServerName directive.
+	- Added BrowseAllow, BrowseDeny, BrowseOrder, BrowsePoll, and
+	  BrowseRelay directives.
+	- BrowseInterval 0 disables advertising of local printers, but
+	  still receives information on remote printers.
+	- New browse polling daemon (for polling servers on different
+	  networks)
+	- New PPD cache file for faster startup times with large numbers
+	  of PPD files.
+	- The Host: field was incorrectly required for HTTP/1.0 clients.
+	- New set-job-attributes operation now supported.
+	- The mime_load_types() and mime_load_convs() functions did not
+	  close their input files.
+
+
+CHANGES IN CUPS v1.1b1
+
+	- NEW web-based administration interface.
+	- NEW EPSON printer drivers.
+	- NEW user-defined printers and options.
+	- NEW persistent jobs and job history
+	- NEW IPP/1.1 support
+	- NEW template-based web interfaces.
+	- NEW CUPS-get-devices and CUPS-get-ppds operations.
+	- NEW support for create-job and send-file operations.
+	- NEW certificate-based authentication for local
+	      administration.
+	- NEW USB backend.
+	- The lpr command now produces human-readable error messages.
+	- The lpq command now produces BSD standard format output
+	  instead of OSF/1 output.  This should resolve the SAMBA
+	  print queue problems that have been reported.
+	- The IPP backend did not always detect when the "raw" option
+	  was being used.
+	- The "lpstat -p" command would stop after the first active
+	  printer.
+	- The "lpstat -v" command would stop before the first remote
+	  printer.
+
+
+CHANGES IN CUPS v1.0.5
+
+	- The HP-GL/2 filter did not correctly set the pen color
+          for pens other than #1.
+	- The scheduler would only accept 26 simultaneous jobs
+          under some OS releases (mkstemp() limitation.)  It now
+          handles up to 2^32 simultaneous jobs.
+	- The PostScript filter loaded the printer's PPD file
+          twice.
+	- The PAM authentication code now uses pam_strerror() to
+          provide a textual error message in the error_log file.
+	- The scheduler now copies PPD and interface script
+          files instead of moving them; this fixes installations
+          with a separate requests directory.
+	- The PostScript RIP did not generate correct 6-color
+          output.
+	- Several filters were marking PPD options twice when
+          they didn't need to.
+	- The scheduler did not save the printer or class state
+          after an accept-jobs or reject-jobs operation.
+	- The cupsGetDefault() function now ignores the PRINTER
+          environment variable if it is set to "lp".
+	- New ippErrorString() function to get textual error
+          messages.
+	- Better error reporting in the System V commands.
+	- The lpadmin and lpstat commands always tried to
+          connect to the default server.
+	- The text filter didn't load the charset files from the
+          correct location.
+	- Wasn't sending a WWW-Authenticate: field to HTTP
+          clients when authentication was required.
+	- httpSeparate() didn't always set the default port
+          number for known methods.
+	- The HP-GL/2 filter now looks for "PSwidth,length"
+          instead of (the correct) "PSlength,width" as
+          documented by HP.  It appears that many major CAD
+          applications are broken and this change allows the
+          auto-rotation to work with them.
+	- The IPP "printer-resolution" option was not being
+          translated.
+	- The charset files did not include the Microsoft
+          "standard" characters from 128 to 159 (unused by the
+          ISO-8859-x charsets)
+	- The scheduler was chunking the Content-Type field from
+          CGI programs; this problem was most noticeable with
+          Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.
+	- By popular demand, the printers, jobs, and classes
+          CGIs no longer force a reload of the page every 10/30
+          seconds.
+	- The scheduler incorrectly required that the IPP client
+          provide a document-format attribute for the
+          validate-job operation.
+	- Clients that sent bad IPP requests without the
+          required attributes-natural-language and
+          attributes-charset attributes would crash the
+          scheduler.
+
+
+CHANGES IN CUPS v1.0.4
+
+	- Documentation updates.
+	- Jobs would get stuck in the queue and wouldn't print
+	  until you enabled the queue.
+	- The lp and lpr commands now catch SIGHUP and SIGINTR.
+	- The lp and lpr commands now use sigaction or sigset
+	  when available.
+	- CUPS library updates for WIN32/OS-2
+
+
+CHANGES IN CUPS v1.0.3
+
+	- Documentation updates.
+	- The lpq man page was missing.
+	- The configure script was not properly detecting the
+	  image libraries.
+	- The top-level makefile was calling "make" instead of
+	  "$(MAKE)".
+	- PostScript filter fixes for number-up, OutputOrder,
+	  and %Trailer.
+	- The imagetops filter didn't end the base-85 encoding
+	  properly if the image data was not a multiple of 4
+	  bytes in length.
+	- The imagetoraster filter didn't generate good banded
+	  RGB or CMY data (was dividing the line width by 4
+	  instead of 3...)
+	- The imagetoraster filter now records the bounding
+	  box of the image on the page.
+	- The CUPS image library cache code wasn't working as
+	  designed; images larger than the maximum RIP cache
+	  would eventually thrash using the same cache tile.
+	- The CUPS image library TIFF loading code didn't
+	  handle unknown resolution units properly; the fixed
+	  code uses a default resolution of 128 PPI.
+	- cupsGetClasses() and cupsGetPrinters() did not free
+	  existing strings if they ran out of memory.
+	- The scheduler logs incorrectly contained 3 digits for
+	  the timezone offset instead of 4.
+	- The scheduler now does a lookup for the default user
+	  and group ID; the previous hardcoded values caused
+	  problems with the LPD backend.
+	- The cancel-job operation now allows any user in the
+	  system group to cancel any job.
+	- The cancel-job operation stopped the print queue if
+	  the job was being printed.
+	- Now only stop printers if the backend fails. If the
+	  filter fails then the failure is noted in the
+	  error_log and printing continues with the next file in
+	  the queue.
+	- Now log whether a filter fails because of a signal
+	  or because it returned a non-zero exit status.
+	- The root user now always passes the system group test.
+	- Printers with an interface script and remote printers
+	  and classes didn't have a printer-make-and-model
+	  attribute.
+	- Added logging of lost/timed-out remote printers.
+	- The HP-GL/2 filter was scaling the pen width twice.
+	- Updated the HP-GL/2 filter to use a single SP (Set
+	  Pen) procedure.  This makes the output smaller and is
+	  more appropriate since the filter keeps track of the
+	  pen states already.
+	- The scheduler didn't handle passwords with spaces.
+	- The IPP backend now does multiple copies and retries
+	  if the destination server requires it (e.g. HP
+	  JetDirect.)
+	- The disable command didn't implement the "-c" option
+	  (cancel all jobs.)
+	- Changed the CMYK generation function for the image file
+	  and PostScript RIPs.
+	- The lp command didn't support the "-h" option as
+	  documented.
+	- The AppSocket, IPP, and LPD backends now retry on all
+	  network errors.  This should prevent stopped queues
+	  caused by a printer being disconnected from the
+	  network or powered off.
+	- The scheduler now restarts a job if the corresponding
+	  printer is modified.
+	- The image RIPs now rotate the image if needed to fit
+	  on the page.
+
+
+CHANGES IN CUPS v1.0.2
+
+	- The HP-GL/2 filter didn't always scale the output
+	  correctly.
+	- The HP-GL/2 filter now supports changing the page size
+	  automatically when the "fitplot" option is not used.
+	- The cancel-job operation was expecting a resource name
+	  of the form "/job/#" instead of "/jobs/#"; this
+	  prevented the cancel and lprm commands from working.
+	- The backends didn't log pages when files were printed
+	  using the "-oraw" option.
+	- The authorization code did not work with the Slackware
+	  long shadow password package because its crypt() can
+	  return NULL.
+	- The chunking code didn't work for reading the response
+	  of a POST request.
+	- cupsGetPPD() now does authentication as needed.
+	- The N-up code in the PostScript filter didn't work
+	  with some printers (grestoreall would restore the
+	  default blank page and device settings).
+	- The N-up code in the PostScript filter didn't scale
+	  the pages to fit within the imageable area of the
+	  page.
+	- Wasn't doing an fchown() on the request files.  This
+	  caused problems when the default root account group
+	  and CUPS group were not the same.
+
+
+CHANGES IN CUPS v1.0.1
+
+	- Documentation updates.
+
+	- Fixed a bunch of possible buffer-overflow conditions.
+
+	- The scheduler now supports authentication using PAM.
+
+	- Updated the Italian message file.
+
+	- httpEncode64() didn't add an extra "=" if there was
+	  only one byte in the last three-byte group.
+
+	- Now drop any trailing character set from the locale
+	  string (e.g. "en_US.ISO_8859-1" becomes "en_US")
+
+	- Fixed "timezone" vs "tm_gmtoff" usage for BSD-based
+	  operating systems.
+
+	- Updated IPP security so that "get" operations can be
+	  done from any resource name; this allows the CGIs to
+	  work with printer authentication enabled so long as
+	  authentication isn't turned on for the whole "site".
+
+	- The IPP code didn't properly handle the "unsupported"
+	  group; this caused problems with the HP JetDirect since
+	  it doesn't seem to support the "copies" attribute.
+
+	- The HTTP chunking code was missing a CR LF pair at the
+	  end of a 0-length chunk.
+
+	- The httpSeparate() function didn't handle embedded
+	  usernames and passwords in the URI properly.
+
+	- Doing "lpadmin -p printer -E" didn't restart printing
+	  if there were pending jobs.
+
+	- The cancel-job operation now requires either a
+	  requesting-user-name attribute or an authenticated
+	  username.
+
+	- The add-printer code did not report errors if the
+	  interface script or PPD file could not be renamed.
+
+	- Request files are now created without world read
+	  permissions.
+
+	- Added a cupsLastError() function to the CUPS API to
+	  retrieve the IPP error code from the last request.
+
+	- Options are now case-insensitive.
+
+	- The lpq command now provides 10 characters for the
+	  username instead of the original (Berkeley standard)
+	  7.
+
+	- The cancel command needed a local CUPS server to work
+	  (or the appropriate ServerName in cupsd.conf)
+
+	- The cancel and lprm commands didn't report the IPP
+	  error if the job could not be cancelled.
+
+	- The lp and lpr commands didn't intercept SIGTERM to
+	  remove temporary files when printing from stdin.
+
+	- The lp and lpr commands didn't report the IPP error if
+	  the job could not be printed.
