Hi,

after the OpenPrinting Meeting in Tokyo

https://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/LFJapanSymposiumTokyo2007

we have agreed on a time line for the common printing dialog:

End of November (not fulfilled): Manufacturers comment on the current 
design of the dialog 
(http://www.mmiworks.net/eng/publications/labels/openPrinting.html)

December: First draft of dialog spec

January: Finishing of dialog design. The design should not only contain 
how the dialog looks like but also extensions for PPD files and Foomatic 
as needed.

February: Final spec

End of February; Kick-off meeting for the coding of the dialog: The 
dialog designer group of OpenUsability meets with developers from GNOME, 
KDE, Trolltech, GTK, ...

The Linux Foundation sponsors a student to work together with Peter 
Sikking, for starting immediately.

The Linux Foundation also supports the meeting in February,
