Huh? The pre1.0 release has been available for several weeks before
we switched to 1.0. I don't see how would more frequent snapshots
would get people to compile SANE more often. I think I strongly
encouraged people to test out the pre1.0 releases and it's not my
fault if people don't test it on platforms other than Linux until
after 1.0 was released.
Maybe the real issue is that we may need/want a sane-testers mailing
list so people can be alerted to impending new releases without having
to deal with the volumes of mail on sane-devel. I'd be happy to
maintain such a list.
