1.1

Hello fellow developers,

CUPS 1.3 has been in the tree for quite some time now and has matured
to a degree where it should be ready to go stable. We've no open CUPS
bugs for 1.3 anymore. Also maintaining CUPS 1.2 will be even harder as
time goes by since there's nearly no month passing without a new CVE
affecting CUPS and we have to plug the holes with patches.

KDE 3.5.9 will go stable any time soon and I'd like to have CUPS
stabilised along with it since an upgrade from CUPS 1.2 to 1.3 would
mean an additional rebuild of kdelibs. An ewarn message has already
been added to the ebuild to notify our users to run etc-update and
revdep-rebuild after upgrading from CUPS 1.2 since this is very
important.

If there's anything I might oversee please speak up.
