Hi again devs, Remember, 2015-09-19 is feature freeze day. That's only about 90 minutes away from where I'm at, but I hope that we can sneak in last minute features till the end of that day ;-)
Please take a look at any of the branches I mentioned below. I also added a few: - pu/scanimage-png-jpeg-v4 adds PNG and JPEG image file format output support to scanimage - pu/add-hu.po-313073 add Hungarian translations - pu/ja.po-fixes-31385 for a few fixes to the Japanese translations - pu/man-pages-fixes-314280-314282 fix manual page issues that make it next to impossible to cleanly convert these pages to other formats In terms of new "features", there's - pu/scanimage-png-jpeg-v4 - pu/add-hu.po-313073 that need to be acted on swiftly to make the feature freeze. The remainder are fixes or enhancements. Of those, I'd like to see as many of the must-have, no-brainers and "IMNSHO-hsould-have" branches below go in Real Soon Now. Any branches that get merged will be removed from my GitLab clone as soon I as notice the merge and finish checking it. @devs (allan, stef, rolf mostly?): Please take a look and merge those branches you feel comfortable merging. I may be able to merge branches myself but (as mentioned) don't feel comfortable doing so yet. Maybe *after* the 1.0.25 release.
