Comment 15 for bug 16704

Hi Brett Alton : There is actually no bug report open for scanner packaging for Brother devices. You can open one. I was actually the one who created packages for brother printer drivers (with a lot of help from Till Kamppeter and Martin Pitt). If you want to start packaging brother scanner drivers, you are welcome! Unfortunately I don't have a lot of time to assist you with that task and I didn't started to work on scanner drivers yet (as I'm very busy with other things, even the printer drivers suffer from a lack of update from me). However if I was you, I would start to play here :

The source code of the three existing brother scanner drivers :

The brother scanner drivers, already compiled, as a reference :

Thanks for offering your help.
