<h1 align=center>Supported Platforms</h1>
<p>
<hr>
</p>
<p>SANE has been ported to many platforms. The following table lists the
status for various platforms. A question mark indicates uncertainty about the
accuracy of the information. A listed version number of an operating system or
a compiler doesn't mean that other versions don't work.
</p>
<p> Keeping this table up to date depends on your reporting the latestet
working configurations. If you have new information or corrections, please
send mail to <a
href="mailto:sane-devel@mostang.com">sane-devel@mostang.com</a> or <a
href="mailto:Oliver.Rauch@Rauch-Domain.DE">Oliver.Rauch@Rauch-Domain.DE</a>.
We are especially interested in reports about platforms not listed here or
about configurations with outdated entries.
</p>
<p>Here you find some <a href="sane-support-pre1.html">platform tests of old sane versions</a>.</p>
