Repackaging Brother™ drivers for Debian

Debian copyist brother

This project aims to repackage Brother™ non-free drivers for Debian.

Like in a scriptorium, we copy, conserve, translate, criticise, catalog books drivers, and sometimes forget what is useless.

Thanks to Debian France to have motivated this work.
