I have Debian and (Open)SuSE

At some point I'd like to take a look at paper-light
applications/suites/operation:-

Something to run a scanner, so that the user can just load a stack and
let it scan, or throw successive individual pieces at it, and have them
stack up as images;

An _easy_ way to identify the person or business activity with which
they should be associated, capable of interfacing with Master Person
Indexes etc;

A good way of picking the one you want - person/activity and document -
when you are retrieving stuff.



I suspect it is detail work that remains to be done, and would be useful
particularly once OCR is good.
