I felt I should highlight one of the almost complete F11 features that have recently landed in rawhide and are waiting to be tried out...

Marek has pretty much completed his work on making system-config-printer use PolicyKit to control access to privileged operations:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/CupsPolicyKitIntegration

To see how the policies apply, just open system-config-printer and try to make changes to your printer configuration.

To change or inspect cups-related policies, go to System ➔ Preferences ➔ Authorizations and navigate to the org.opensuse.cupspkhelper part of the tree. (As the name indicates, this feature is a collaboration between us and some OpenSUSE guys).

Please let us know if things work as expected (or if they don't...)

Matthias

Could you please post this ( and any other test related subject ) to the test-list and or cc the test list.

Best regards Johann B.
