Hi Brandon, I saw Torfinn's reply but wanted to chime in with my take on it.

Just want a cost estimate and we can talk about the work for > it. Kind of shock there have been no replies so far. Not all that shocking. I used to work pretty much full-time on EPSON scanner driver development for Linux. Now I do web development related work but still hang around here at the SANE project as a *volunteer*. While I wouldn't mind earning something on the side, my current employer does not allow that. So I would have to do the work unpaid but I'm not sure that wouldn't raise an eyebrow at the office (potential conflict of interest and such). That is also why am I not taking up maintenance of the various backends that support EPSON scanners (they're unmaintained at the moment). Also, there are more fun things to do with my free time than add support for a scanner. I wouldn't be surprised if most of the SANE developers feel the same way ;-) Hope this clarifies a bit and good luck finding any takers, -- Olaf Meeuwissen, LPIC-2 FSF Associate Member since 2004-01-27 GnuPG key: F84A2DD9/B3C0 2F47 EA19 64F4 9F13 F43E B8A4 A88A F84A 2DD9 Support Free Software https://my.fsf.org/donate Join the Free Software Foundation https://my.fsf.org/join -- sane-devel mailing list: sane-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sane-devel Unsubscribe: Send mail with subject "unsubscribe your_password" to sane-devel-requ...@lists.alioth.debian.org
