[sane-devel] Proposal: Change IRC Topic

Hi there,

in my opinion from the outside SANE can easily be mistaken for a unmaintained/stale project,
whereas many (but definitely not all) aspects of the project are functioning all right.

On the one hand, we should try to improve the under-performing aspects.
On the other hand, I think it is a good workaround and maybe even a valid solution
to make people focus on the good parts and redirect them there should they somehow stumble over the bad parts.

In this spirit I propose the following really simple change to the IRC Topic:


The current topic for #sane is:
----- -----
SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) | Homepage: http://www.sane-project.org | Current versions: sane-backends 1.0.19 | sane-frontends 1.0.14 | If you can only scan as root on Linux, read README.linux: http://www.sane-project.org/README.linux | Please be patient, we'll answer you if we're around.
----- -----

The proposed topic for #sane is:
----- -----
SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) | Homepage: http://www.sane-project.org | In addition to #sane, there is the sane-devel mailing list, and honestly it's quite likely that you get more feedback over there: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/sane-devel
----- -----

Any comments? Who can enact this change?

Best Regards
Michael
