New Simple Scan Designs Emerge; Seeking Devs to Implement Them
Simple Scan is one of my personal favourite and perhaps even one of the "essential" apps on the Linux desktop for me.

GNOME UX designer and Red Hat Desktop Team Member, Allan Day, showed the new mockup designs off in his blog post. Simple Scan has a pretty sparse and simplistic interface already, and I mean that in a positive way, but Allan believes that "just because it's great, doesn't mean it can't be improved" and that most of the improvements are simply "refinements", rather than major overhauls, in order to make some of the app's functions a bit easier to discover and navigate.
