249 - ppdOpen*() incorrectly loaded PPDs with multiple JobPatchFile
250 keywords.
251 - The network backends no longer report the SNMP "offline" or
252 maintenance status bits since they are inconsistently implemented and
253 often unreliable.
254 - The scheduler no longer logs child processes killed via SIGKILL as
255 "crashed".
256 - The printer link shown on the "job moved" template was bad (STR #3085)

259 printer had other reasons associated with it.
260 - cupsSendRequest() did not clear old local certificate auth data.

300 its jobs.
301 - The default BrowseLocalProtocols value was not set properly.
