</div><div class="ecxgmail_extra"><br></div>Paul, you may not know this, but it's considered bad mailing list etiquette (on this list and elsewhere) to hijack threads, which is what you did here. You wanted to start a discussion about CUPS, which is *fine*, but instead of composing a new email to start up the discussion, you replied to an existing thread, and in doing so, "hijacked" the thread topic.</div>
