Timo, could you create a formal merge request so Robert does not miss this again?
Thanks!

(09:32:29) robert_ancell: yeah, I need to review that
(09:32:41) robert_ancell: that will be for the 3.6 release
(09:33:09) Michael Nagel: what is current?
(09:33:18) robert_ancell: 3.4
(09:33:29) Michael Nagel: 3.4 will be in precise, right?
(09:33:50) robert_ancell: yes
(09:34:10) Michael Nagel: what a pity
(09:36:38) robert_ancell: btw, I just noticed that branch doesn't have a merge request
(09:36:57) robert_ancell: so that's one reason why I haven't been noticing it
(09:37:27) Michael Nagel: like a formal merge request in launchpad?
(09:37:30) robert_ancell: yes
(09:37:43) Michael Nagel: ok, i will ask for one
(09:38:07) robert_ancell: so if you see anyone with a branch that wants a review to propose it for merging.  If they know it still has problems, that's fine just note that in the merge request

Title:
  Simple Scan crashes result in preventable data loss

Status in Simple Scan:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  As a matter of fact Simple Scan crashes often. Bad drivers, Out Of
  Memory Problems, ...

  These problems should be fixed, but for the meanwhile it would be worthwhile to minimize data and time lost in such cases.
  For the bad drivers cases there already is Bug #564357 but especially for the OOM problem and to take some pressure from the complex Bug #564357 I suggest to look for other ways to minimize data loss.

  Ideas: 
  - save work to temporary files, and optimally allow to recover from such files (can perfectly be combined with the feature request to manually load a file at startup to add pages to that file).
  - ...
