Re: [sane-devel] Release 1.0.33?

2021-08-17 Thread Ralph Little
Hi,
OK, seems like we have an appetite for a release.
Since this is the first time we have done this without Olaf, I suggest that
we give ourselves plenty of time to figure out the ropes.

I propose the following timeline:

Feature Freeze - Sept 24
Code Freeze - Oct 7
Release - Oct 14

This follows a similar timeframe to our previous release, but with a longer
lead time to the start of the process to allow us to figure it all out. It
also keeps the month dates similar to before.

I will try to assemble the tasks in the meantime.
If anyone wishes to take on any of the release tasks then feel free to step
forward!

>From what I can think of from the top of my head:
- Calling for translations
- Building the changelog
- Updating the PPAs and creating a 1.0.33 on sane-release (which I will do)
- Creating a milestone on GitLab to assign all relevant issues/MRs to
- Other things that I have probably forgotten about.

In the meantime, I encourage people to expedite their MRs and branch work
if they want to get it included in the release!

Cheers,
Ralph


Re: [sane-devel] Unable to use Canon Unit201 scanner with Linux Mint

2021-08-17 Thread m. allan noah
The FSU-101 says the same thing, but it is a normal scanner. The limitation
is just in canon's windows software. I'm not sure we know how to get
canon's linux software to work, or if it also contains this limitation.

Hello,

I found this advice on Canon Product Website:


* The Flatbed Scanner Unit 201 needs to be used with a DR-series
scanner; it cannot be used independently.

Lots of Epson scanners were added since the last release. Would be
really nice to push this out to users. So, yay!

Hi,
It's a big job.
But it allows a faster integration in the different distributions.
I am quite in favor of this pace.
