There is no single "open source community" really. CUPS is developed as
open source, and Apple does most of the core development.
If you're thinking about automatic printer driver installation, or
automatic queue set-up when a USB printer is connected, or the slick
Printers page in the GNOME System Settings tool... those features were
largely developed by Red Hat. :-)
