ok, so step 0 would seem to be this: go through the printing system in 
trunk/kdelibs/ by testing each of the features in the UI and cataloging which 
do not work properly ... i'm sure we'll have a collection of user interface 
errors, cups integration problems (esp with the newest version?), porting 
bungles ...

if the printing experience Work(tm) from the perspective of a user, we should 
be ok for 4.0 ... this would also, i would imagine, be a great way to get 
more aware of what the printing system in kde is capable of. i also know that 
Kurt has a pretty complete knowledge of things there, so he may be a good 
source of feature related guidance?

would building such a State of the KPrinter page on techbase be something you 
guys (Christopher and John) would be up for doing?

fame, glory and cool hacks await the brave; well, probably mostly the cool 
hacks. and the glory from all the happy users. fame is more fickle. just look 
what it did to maralyn monroe. =)
