+
+ - Possibility for users to have their personal default options
+ (.lpoptions file as in CUPS, due to the Foomatic options having the same
+ names as the CUPS-O-MATIC options one can even use an .lpoptions file
+ with exactly the same format as the CUPS file and it will be used by
+ both Foomatic and CUPS)
+
+ - Write a few key lint-like and transforming tools for the xml data.
+
+ - Fold foomatic-gswrapper into the foomatic-rip
+
+ - Improve ascii support to lpdomatic and pdq files. ASCII should
+ simply be a matter of observing the ascii bit in the printer $dat
+ and sending either crlf-ed text or postscriptifying and running
+ through the ps driver. Right now text is always translated to
+ PostScript (with the advantage of more nicely-looking text
+ output (with head line, page numbers, ...). When one implements
+ the possibility to pass text directly to the printer, one should
+ consider the optional use or the "pr" filter.
+
+ - PDQ file versioning is still unsatisfactory. I changed from a
+ checksum to the current timestamp. So now it's sequential, but
+ changes all every time. Other spoolers' code needs a version story
+ in the first place.
