Thanks, upload in progress.

There are some changes that it would be nice to incorporate in a future 
upstream release:

* the 4 typo fixes:
	0001-Fix-Unk-n-own-typo-in-cups-browsed-debug-output.patch
	0002-Fix-the-allows-one-to-typo-in-foomatic-rip-manpage.patch
	0003-Fix-Ou-t-put-typo-in-foomatic-rip.patch
	0004-Fix-unnecces-s-arily-typo-in-cups-browsed.patch 
* a relicensing…

As you know, CUPS 2.3 is licensed under Apache-2.0, and GPL-2-only software is 
now incompatible. Unfortunately, cups-filters has some GPL-2-only licensed 
source files (most of which are AFAIK inherited from older CUPS). This makes 
the cups-filters + CUPS 2.3 combination undistributable.

Please consider relicensing the GPL-2-only source files, in agreement with the 
eventual other copyright holders, to an Apache-2.0-compatible license (such as 
GPL-3+, or Apache-2.0).

Cheers,
    OdyX
