Hi,
Congratulations to all who contributed his/her ideas, code and at least
time for the new SANE release.
After having some time with reflecting my after-work activities, I
decided to say Goodbye to the SANE project, especially as maintainer for
the pixma backend.
OMG what? :(
I'm very, very sad to see you say goodbye. Thanks for all the time and
effort you've put into the pixma backend. Based on the frequency with
which it popped up here on the mailing list as well as in GitLab issues
your leaving the SANE Project will have quite a bit of an impact :-(
Hear, hear.
You have always been responsive, courteous and helpful to me and that
gave me an excellent introduction to the world of SANE.
If somebody hears the calling to become a maintainer for the pixma
backend, he/she is welcome to contact me off-list for discussing any
questions about structure and functionality.
If I had the time I might be up for that and in the future, perhaps that
might come to pass, but I think for the moment I will just interject
every now and then and do what I can.
That includes finishing up the work that I am doing now.
What will happen to your PPAs? Are you planning to hand that over to
someone else?
I know they are a big deal for many people, including myself.
Regards,
Ralph
