[Sugar-devel] Status of printing support?

[Vamsi Krishna Davuluri]

Sorry about the long hiatus. I Had to go places for my
thesis; almost done with Engg. school.

Daniel, would be nice if you can update me with what
you've worked out on. I will be free full time, and will
definitely work on integrating it.

Regards,
Vamsi
