<EM>&gt; Argh. :-) Do I really need to take such difficult decisions?
</EM><BR>
<P>Yes ;-)
<BR>
<P><EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; I suggest make a new subdirectory in sane/, and putting it there. I
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; suggest calling this sane-frontend/. It should be a complete
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; distribution on its own.
</EM><BR>
<P><EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Any comments or objections? If not, Oliver, just go ahead. :-)
</EM><BR>
<P>Yes....:
<BR>
<P><P><EM>&gt; This way there is only one subdirectory to check out for developers,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; and we could easily make tree distributions, one with everything and
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; two for the backends and frontends.
</EM><BR>
<P>In that case we will get in trouble with the versions.
<BR>
If we split frontends and backends in two packages they will get their
<BR>
own version numbers, so a common distribution (backend+frontend)
<BR>
will mix up different version numbers.
<BR>
<P>We should _not_ make any distributions that include backends
<BR>
and frontends when we split them!!!
<BR>
(I think sane-frontends-1.0.4 will keep up to date much longer
<BR>
than sane-1.0.4 (backends)).
<BR>
<P><EM>&gt; The other alternative is to make a new subdirectory parallell to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; sane/, but then people would need to check out two CVS trees.
</EM><BR>
<P>I would prefer this because we really have two different
<BR>
distributions and we should not mix them up.
<BR>
&nbsp;
<BR>
<EM>&gt; BTW: Is there really anyone using xscanimage and xcam? I use xsane
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; when I want to scan something, and scanimage when I want to test
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; something. I guess we will find out. :-)
</EM><BR>
<P>I think it does not matter. There may be someone using xcam/xscanimage
<BR>
and so it is a good solution to make an own distribution with it.
<BR>
<P>Bye
<BR>
