Hi Evan,

I won't chime in the ACLs, but we are slated to replace the three print 
servers getting slammed starting tonight.  IO will be first while 
paper-pusher and mulch will soon follow.  After that, the printer 
congestion should pretty much go away, we hope.

At some point, I'd like to chat with you about what you did with CUPS.  I 
am doing some testing myself to see if we can get off the aging LPRng 
software some time in the next couple of months.  I have a couple of 
queues using a test server here, but I would like to see what you guys did 
so that we don't collide in efforts.

Sound good?
