[$] CUPS reaches version 2.0

Version 2.0 of the CUPS printing system was released on October 1. In addition to marking the 15th anniversary of version 1.0, the 2.0 milestone primarily designates that CUPS has implemented a full set of APIs for running an HTTP and Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) service. This includes support for the IPP Everywhere effort that makes IPP printers available to smartphones, tablets, and other sub-PC devices. But there are many other enhancements as well, including improved system compatibility for Linux and several security fixes.
