<i>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; On Sun, 13 Dec 1998 16:02:58 -0500, David Huggins-Daines &lt;<a href="mailto:bn711@freenet.carleton.ca">bn711@freenet.carleton.ca</a>&gt; said:</i><br>
<p>
David.H&gt; FWIW, I like the idea of at least having anonymous CVS<br>
David.H&gt; access and regular snapshot releases / diffs (doesn't have<br>
David.H&gt; to be nightly). That way, people would have more of a<br>
David.H&gt; chance to try compiling and running the new stuff in a<br>
David.H&gt; variety of different configurations (and a variety of<br>
David.H&gt; different GCC versions :-) right up to the minute an<br>
David.H&gt; official release is made.<br>
<p>
Huh? The pre1.0 release has been available for several weeks before<br>
we switched to 1.0. I don't see how would more frequent snapshots<br>
would get people to compile SANE more often. I think I strongly<br>
encouraged people to test out the pre1.0 releases and it's not my<br>
fault if people don't test it on platforms other than Linux until<br>
after 1.0 was released.<br>
<p>
Maybe the real issue is that we may need/want a sane-testers mailing<br>
list so people can be alerted to impending new releases without having<br>
to deal with the volumes of mail on sane-devel. I'd be happy to<br>
maintain such a list.<br>
