Is there a forum in which to discuss SANE front ends and in particular the best ways to get specific tasks done?
My own particular problem: I want to do what I think is called "scan to archive". I have way too many documents on paper and I'd like to capture them and discard the paper. This paper is just half a lifetime's accumulation -- it isn't a systematic corpus. I think I want to capture to image files (possibly PDF) but supplement this with OCRed text to facilitate full-text search. I need a format that will still be useful for decades into the future. I want the capture process to be as easy as possible -- otherwise I'll never get it done. Based on recommendations from allan noah, I've splurged on a Fujitsu fi-6130. It works out of the box, with no setup, on my Fedora 15 box. Bravo! Now I have to figure out how best to use it. This page is useful, but only the barest start: <http://www.sane-project.org/sane-frontends.html> So: is there a good forum (or mailing list) where I could share experiences and advice with others?
