https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2024-March/091748.html
+ current idea is to use CPDB instead of directly implementing
CUPS API in the
future (require for CUPS 3.x, optional for CUPS 2.x)
+ any thoughts?
+ just the backend code, not UI? (Caolan)
+ yes, probably better to sell than unified dialog
+ sounds good overall

+ Xisco created the above wiki page about all those libraries

-
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Upstream_Release_Monitoring/
+ above link has options how to monitor new releases atomatically
