True, since I've joined the list I try to give it some sort of priority. But Real Life has to come first.

When needed, support for new tablet models and linux kernel versions are added. Recently he did a larger reorganization of the source as well. But, I can admit that it feels that the project is in a kind of maintenance mode at the moment. Sven, the support for Wacom tablets is pretty good in Linux. But if you ask me, getting a few developers from Wacom (preferably used to linux and, most important, willing) to join the list which are officially allowed to use an hour or two of working time each week would be a boon. What could they help with? * Testing and help out users with problems. * Discuss ideas and solutions * Help out identifying bugs and make patches * Go through the Tracker and help out where possible Official support for Linux on their web would be a natural step if their people were involved in the community, imho. Feel free to add to the list in if anybody have some other ideas how the help could be used. BR Magnus V ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
