   7           systemd after a restart (<rdar://problem/18112848>)
   8         - Added some USB quirk rules for the libusb-based USB backend

  14
  15         - Documentation updates (STR #4464)
  16         - The scheduler now monitors the AC power status on OS X, allowing for
  17           "sleep printing" when sharing printers (<rdar://problem/17325852>)
  18         - The scheduler incorrectly called launch_activate_socket multiple times
  19           on OS X (<rdar://problem/17523218>)
  20         - The ippserver test program now passes the IPP Everywhere self-
  21           certification tests (STR #4101)
  22         - Relaxed the new OS X filter sandbox slightly (STR #4471,
  23           <rdar://problem/17483959>)
  24         - Dropped the old Epson Stylus Color/Photo sample drivers since they
  25           don't work with any current printers and there are free alternatives
  26           that produce much better output (<rdar://problem/18036889>)
  27         - Log and configuration files that are not world-readable are again
  28           accessible via the web interface (STR #4461)
  29         - PPD files are now created using the permissions specified by the
  30           ConfigFilePerm directive.

  32         - Fixed the spinner image and restart page when reconfiguring the

  41           format such as PDF fails (<rdar://problem/15583721>)
  42         - Added support for regular expression matching in the MIME type rules

  48         - Added support for auto-typing of TIFF files by ipptool (STR #4418)
  49         - The scheduler now returns completed jobs in the correct newest-to-
  50           oldest order (STR #4396)
  51         - The configure script now supports target-specific tools for pkg-config
  52           and others (STR #4423)
  53         - The ipptool program now supports EXPECT statements for collection
  54           member attributes (<rdar://problem/15355218>)

  58           default (<rdar://problem/14756625>)
  59         - Adopted Linux man page conventions and updated all man pages
  60           (STR #4372, STR #4329)
  61         - The scheduler now supports the "first-index" operation attribute for
  62           the Get-Jobs operation (STR #2913)
  63         - Changed the default AccessLogLevel and PageLogFormat to disable the

  65         - cupsRasterInterpretPPD now supports the Orientation header in order to
  66           support long-edge feed raster printers (<rdar://problem/15837926>)
  67         - The scheduler now allows run-as-root backends to have group read and

  71         - Dropped OpenSSL support in favor of GNU TLS.
  72         - Dropped "dark wake" support on OS X, which was preventing portables
  73           from going to sleep when there was a stuck job. We now use a variation
  74           of the CUPS 1.4 sleep support to do a cleaner sleep
  75           (<rdar://problem/14323704>)

  78           scheduler (STR #4321)
  79         - The cupsGetClasses, cupsGetPrinters, and cupsTempFile functions are no
  80           longer supported.
  81         - The scheduler now caches more job history data and limits the number
  82           of completed jobs returned by Get-Jobs as needed in order to prevent a
  83           denial-of-service on busy servers (STR #2913)
  84         - The filter/backend sandbox on OS X now defaults to a more strict
  85           whitelist (<rdar://problem/15939788>)
  86         - Increased the default idle exit timeout to 60 seconds on OS X
  87           (<rdar://problem/16041820>)
  88         - Printer classes were not accessible on OS X
  89           (<rdar://problem/16385643>)
  90         - The scheduler now uses </DefaultPrinter> to close the default printer
  91           definition in printers.conf (STR #4153)
  92         - Canceling all jobs in the web interface now just cancels the jobs
  93           (STR #1914)
