346 keywords.
347 - The network backends no longer report the SNMP "offline" or
348 maintenance status bits since they are inconsistently implemented and
349 often unreliable.
350 - The scheduler no longer logs child processes killed via SIGKILL as
351 "crashed".
352 - The printer link shown on the "job moved" template was bad (STR #3085)

354 - The scheduler did not track the "paused" reason properly if a
355 printer had other reasons associated with it.
356 - cupsSendRequest() did not clear old local certificate auth data.
357 - The PPD compiler did not search for localization files properly
358 (STR #3084)

396 its jobs.
397 - The default BrowseLocalProtocols value was not set properly.
