GNOME designers have recently started experimenting with document scanner mockups, might be good to reach out to them as open paperwork seems like it would fit the bill.

I'll try again reaching them. (I already did try in the past)

Simple Scan is likely the GNOME scanner app.

@jbicha you think those mockups are actually an attempt at reworking simple-scan ?

jflesch avatar May 01 '17 13:05 jflesch

@jflesch Yes, simple-scan was recently added as a GNOME Core App.

Ok, good to know

That's weird, can't find any announcement of simple scan becoming a gnome core app. Is it even part of gnome project?

I believe there's no announcement because the change was made after the development snapshot 3.25.1 release. I expect it to be mentioned in the 3.25.2 development release and more prominently when 3.26 is released.

Yes, simple-scan is part of GNOME. See the link in my earlier comment. Those mockups were made with Simple Scan in mind.

You definitely do not have to shut down your website.

Here's some GNOME-related projects with websites:

And GCompris charges for their full Android and Windows versions. Although I guess they have switched to Qt now, it wasn't a problem when they were hosted on GNOME.

Hm, interresting

jflesch avatar May 03 '17 12:05 jflesch

I'll have a discussion later with Gnome developers regarding the "do and don't" in Gnome apps. I think I'll simply adapt my plans accordingly.

Here are the things I think must be done to become part of Gnome:

  • [x] Flatpaking of Paperwork (#559)
  • [x] Appstream data for Paperwork (#690)
  • [x] Publication on Flathub (#691)
  • [ ] Can be edited/modified in gnome-builder
  • [ ] Hosted on gitlab.gnome.org (Afaik, Gitlab@Gnome is still in trial)
