    It&#x27;s a great concept, but you haven&#x27;t open-sourced the previous code, as the license requires, and you&#x27;re yet again apologizing in this project as well, without any code.<p>Pretty sure you have my code in both projects. I contribute first and foremost to make printers and scanners to work reliably, but also keeping in mind the idea that I could at least try to apply legal actions for companies which violate the license rules one day, as a CUPS&#x2F;SANE&#x2F;printer&#x2F;scanner drivers contributor.<p>Printer companies generally don&#x27;t like that: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;xcancel.com&#x2F;ValdikSS&#x2F;status&#x2F;1745898408693371125#m" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;xcancel.com&#x2F;ValdikSS&#x2F;status&#x2F;1745898408693371125#m</a><p>Cool project though! Hope you can publish the source one day so we can all benefit from it in the future!

    Hrm, yes-we-scan and printervention are built on SANE and CUPS respectively, which makes sense. But running them in a whole wasm-emulated Linux kernel and userland seems... like a lot.

      Oh, and:<p>&gt; I must apologise that I haven’t so far open-sourced any part of this that I don’t have to.<p>With some blather about commercial opportunities. Which is a weird thing to say without linking to the bits that must be shared (under the terms of the various licenses).

      Ah, it seems like the architecture was designed by a slop machine. OK.

    I could also just go buy VueScan, which is cross platform and great.
