Hi LUGers,

Found this AM.
               CUPS has new home at OpenPrinting!
              by Till Kamppeter - OpenPrinting Project Leader

Due to the fact that CUPS development at Apple has stopped since the 
beginning of 2020 we had forked CUPS some months ago to incorporate 
patches and fixes from the distributions.
   As Apple did not resume the upstream work on CUPS, we have made 
OpenPrinting now the official upstream home for CUPS.....  Rest of the 
long article at the URL following:

Well everyone who cares may know that already.  But i just learned
of this today.
