Michael W.,

Thanks a lot for taking our CPDB GSoC project to the meeting!

Caolan, Heiko, the UI is expected to not change, only the communication between 
the dialog and the print technology (usually CUPS, with CPDB others, like cloud 
printing, will also be supported) will change, so we will have the same UI and 
UX as we already have.

See/join the mentioned thread for further discussion.
